The Lady from Spain
ISBN: 9780692292846 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 286 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A KNOCK ON THE DOOR No sound forewarns with more terror than does a rap on the door after midnight. Whoever knocks in a black hour never comes with good news. And when the knock is suspected, predicted - there have been rumors, weighted whispers, warnings, and there have been reports by others that at the edge of the neighborhood already some had heard such a knock - the sound enlarges, takes monstrous shape: a gargantuan specter, a protean haunt, a massive golem, a towering creature made of shadow and evil, and it knows your name. October, the seventeenth day, 1939, a quarter past the second...

Sound Words Seen
ISBN: 9781484045671 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A collection of poetry written by a novelist. In these are contained close observations turned into sound, as poetry is meant to be read aloud. Some are derived from personal experiences intensely felt, others from observations of what others have done. The author, Charles Bechtel, has explored many forms: haiku, haibun, sonnet, rhyming couplets, free verse, always with an ear for the crafted sound and an eye for the specific and singular events. Always looking for the unique image perfectly framed to deliver a succinct thought, Bechtel crafts more than writes his poems. He believes the point...

100 Shadows
ISBN: 9781508422563 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. It has taken me sixty years to write these 100 five-line poems. Each is a slice of personal experience out of which has come meaning worthy of contemplation. I call these meditations, and though each is small, they expand upon reflection. One may read the book in thirty minutes, or one when the need arises. I have been influenced, in making these, by a lifetime of studying Japanese and Chinese forms, specifically haiku and koan. At the heart of the book lies Ursula K. Le Guin's translation of Lao Tzu's "I Ching," which I have owned for more than 20 years. From her I learned how to encapsulate...
