ISBN: 9781516995226 / Angielski / Miękka / 146 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Laieikawai is a Hawaiian romance that recounts the wooing of a native chiefess of high rank and her final deification among the gods. The story was handed down orally from ancient times in the form of a kaao, a narrative rehearsed in prose interspersed with song, in which form old tales are still recited by Hawaiian storytellers. It was put into writing by a native Hawaiian, S.N. Haleole, who hoped thus to awaken in his countrymen an interest in genuine native storytelling based upon the folklore of their race and preserving its ancient customs--already fast disappearing since Cook's...

Selected from the collections of Abraham Fornander (1812-1887) and Thomas G. Thrum (1842-1932), the stories present an ancient history of the island and its first people, telling of the heroes, ancestral spirits, and demigods who performed good works and punished evil-doers. Like ancient petroglyphs, these pre-contact oral traditions are recorded on the land itself - the mountains, rocks, and place names of O'ahu speak them. Stones...

The Myrrh-Bearers
ISBN: 9781922186782 / Angielski / Miękka / 78 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Myrrh-Bearers is a book of love poems, describing real events and real people as the poet has experienced them. The worlds evoked in these poems are suffused with faerie tales, myth and philosophy. The genesis of this collection lies in a diverse engagement with different poetries: the influence of the Polish poets Wislawa Szymborska and Czeslaw Milosz is discernible, along with that of the French poets Henri Michaux, Rene Char, Rene Daumal and Alfred Jarry; there is also the sure presence of Gwen Harwood and Judith Wright as well as, more esoterically, William Blake and G. I. Gurdjieff....

'A uniquely companionable - and, yes, neglected - round-midnight voice, smoky but sharp-edged, knowing but knowledgeable, world-weary but worldly-wise as it muses on love, war, politics, music and ideas. Direct in its imagery, dryly aphoristic in its humour, and possessing a terrific gift for metaphor.' - Peter Goldsworthy

The Non-Sequitur of Snow
ISBN: 9781922186829 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Moving non-chronologically through youth and maturity, dreamscapes and time, Shari Kocher's long-awaited first collection charges the elusive music of cross-generational song-lines -- mothers and daughters, daughters and grandmothers, lovers and kin -- with the invisibles and intangibles of two decades spent honing her craft. This is a book about breathing. It is also about the changing contours of the journey home, even when the ground of what is meant by home seems most absent, impossible or undone. Rooted in place, yet animated by the immaterial, these poems breathe a body of living and...
