Venus and Don Juan
ISBN: 9780810150638 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 61 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In her sixth book of poems, Carol Frost gives a bravura performance as metaphorist and deft artist. Her poems are an inquiry into morals and mystery: she explores love, lust, pleasure, loneliness, regret, and envy, while voicing a longing for love that cannot be sustained. Frost is a thoroughly original poet whose artistic project is unique in American poetry, and this is her best work.

I Will Say Beauty
ISBN: 9780810151383 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The thrilling new collection from the Pushcart Prize-winning poet "I will say beauty," Carol Frost boldly says in one of her new lyrical poems, beauty being for her and all of us elusive-in and out of nature. The phrase is meant as a cri de coeur, and the poems are arranged to offer a fresh way to look at--and exist within--nature. For Frost, beauty is a far cry from the decorous and social. Frost sets many of these poems in Florida's Cedar Keys, amidst the nesting areas of birds, cottonmouth snakes, wetlands, and tidal rhythms. The reader undertakes a journey through a tropical...

The Queen's Desertion
ISBN: 9780810151765 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In her tenth collection of poems, Carol Frost describes a journey through loss. How can one regain equilibrium in the face of absences such as dementia and death? We have to keep moving, even while realizing that the loss of mind and body is the natural conclusion. At the beginning of the first poem Frost invokes the image of an empty or abandoned beehive: Pretty to think of the mind at its end

Pure
ISBN: 9780810150294 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Pure is a fierce, passionate series of meditations on experience and consciousness, morals and customs, and on the natural world that surrounds and shapes human life. Frost's poems bear the stamp of a thoroughly original artistic vision and style - they are discursive yet filled with concrete images; they inquire into moral issues - responsibility, pleasure, guilt, jealousy - without moralizing; they catch the echoes of western myths in domestic and quotidian events; they sharply diagnose relations between the sexes.

The poems in PEN Award-winning author Carol Frost's ninth collection spring from her experiences with her mother's struggle with Alzheimer's disease, forming a deeply moving meditation on memory and its role in the creation and evolution of identity and relationships. Frost maintains complete command of her imaginative leaps between the natural and spiritual worlds in diverse poetic forms.

The Valley of Cross Purposes: Charles Nordhoff and American Journalism, 1860-1890
ISBN: 9781524586102 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the late 1800s, Charles Nordhoff forged the shape of modern journalism and profoundly influenced both politicians and politics. Principled, activist, investigative, and a champion of the disenfranchised and poor, he was more interested in character and results than in personality and credit. And like the blacksmith wielding his hammer, he left us the tangible products of his labors, but few details of himself. In the late 1800s, Charles Nordhoff forged the shape of modern journalism and profoundly influenced both politicians and politics. Principled,... |
