The Logic of Opposites
ISBN: 9780810150829 / Angielski / Miękka / 79 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In her fourth collection of poetry, Alane Rollings grapples with the power and potency of philosophical and psychological opposites. This is a unique collection: combining a detached intimacy with a formal grandeur, Rollings addresses the opposition of stasis and action, depression and activity, sorrow and joy, and inquires into their power to shape both individual life and society as a whole.

ISBN: 9780810150836 / Angielski / Twarda / 81 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The poems in the first section, concerned with speaking, reading, writing, printing, and healing, have at their core the mystery of creativity. The...

The Paper Wasp
ISBN: 9780810150843 / Angielski / Miękka / 81 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In these poems, Teresa Cader undertakes three poetic explorations, all of them deriving from the book's opening image of a paper wasp spinning its white nest on a terrace in ancient China. The paper universe assembled by the wasp teems with both destructive and creative forces and will lead to the invention of paper and the power of writing. The book's first section explores the mystery of creativity; the second looks beneath the papery surface of the nest at the connection between physical and figurative birth.

ISBN: 9780810151109 / Angielski / Twarda / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Winner of 2002 Norma Farber First Book Award Finalist
Gifted with a vivid and exact skill, C. Dale Young's writing resembles an intricate anatomy lesson. His powers of observation probe the small energies of the natural world. Again and again the ordinary details of life transform themselves under the delicate pressure of his words--the movement of birds' wings, the color and texture of tropical flowers, the study of the ocean waves, the "scalpel of light" cutting through the beginning of the day. The language of Young's poems evokes an ultimate sense of place through a gorgeous marriage... Winner of 2002 Norma Farber First Book Award Finalist
