My Wobbly Bicycle: Meditations on Cancer and the Creative Life
ISBN: 9781943995172 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this book full of pain and joy and raw honesty, Fleda Brown, poet and former poet laureate of Delaware, gives us a real-time account of her cancer diagnosis, chemo and radiation, from the doctor's phone call to the one-year, all-clear pronouncement. Now everything's shifted. We pretend there's some solidity, some predictability. But being alive is more like riding a bicycle, balancing on two thin tires. Eventually we'll fall one way or the other, but for the moment, we're upright. It's exciting, sometimes frightening. Brown's week to week accounts lead to the...

Reunion, 13
ISBN: 9780299221843 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 72 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The poems in "Reunion" insistently turn back toward sources: toward home and the idea of home, toward the body, and toward objects that return us to ourselves. They always surprise, moving from quantum mechanics, wildflowers, and a Bobcat driver to a woman killed by a flying deer, magma becoming rock, and an invasion of flying ants. Fleda Brown deftly unites daily frustrations and suffering with profound psychological, physical, and cosmic questions.

Fishing with Blood
ISBN: 9780911198942 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 74 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The poet explains the origin of the poetry books unusual title: A sure way to catch catfish and other bottom-feeders is to squeeze a ball of partially dried cow's blood around a hook. The blood dissolves slowly, spreading its tendrils of odor into the surrounding water. It's like the tight wad of blood relations out of which I keep flinging myself and my words, both to lure whatever is out there and to assure myself of how tightly I'm hooked to the center.

Do Not Peel the Birches
ISBN: 9781557530400 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 85 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In her second collection of poems, Fleda Brown Jackson holds with a meditative rapture to the place she call home"home as family, the source of trouble and joy; home as the embellished stories of family; and home as a place called Central Lake. And when the poems move outward"to Stonehenge, Edinburgh, Kitty-Hawk, Roanoke, St. Pete Beach, and the Mississippi River"the past keeps resonating. At last, the voice that remembers becomes nothing but a riding, a hunger. If I were a swan, she imagines, The world would move / under me / and I would always be exactly / where I am.

The Woods Are On Fire is Fleda Brown's deeply human and intensely felt poetic explorations of her life and world. Her account includes her brain-damaged brother, a rickety family cottage, a puzzling and sometimes frightening father, a timid mother, and the adult life that follows with its loves, divorces, and serious illnesses. Visually and emotionally rich, Brown's poems call on Einstein, Shakespeare, Sophocles, Law and Order, Elvis, and Beethoven. They stand before the Venus de Milo as well as the moon, as they measure distances between what we make as art and who we are as...
