My Fault
Poetry. Winner of the 2015 CSU Poetry Center First Book Competition, Selected by Eileen Myles. "MY FAULT is brainy and organic, interrupting itself. In MY FAULT politics and intimacy are jousting for the planet. Through MY FAULT nature appears, wearing a beautiful stuttering naked poem you know what they mean. Yes." Eileen Myles "When someone says 'my fault' it's usually just after something not so awful has happened; it's usually a little light-hearted, a little excusable. When Leora Fridman says 'my fault' it's not so simple as it is most welcoming. This new book introduces the poet as someone who is willing to be someone, not to hide behind so-called points of view or other concoctions of literary fastidiousness. There's an 'I' in this book and it's an 'I' saying over and over again here I am, how are you? This 'I' says 'We are only looking about // Who can say where the handle is / to this an opening door // Who can hit my switch?' Reading MY FAULT is like being with a new friend who has chosen to trust you with her thoughts about just about everything. It's rare a poet that lets herself be so exposed, so open for inspection, so unguarded." Dara Wier"
From What Is to What If
"Big ideas that just might save the world"--The Guardian The founder of the international Transition Towns movement asks why true creative, positive thinking is in decline, asserts that it's more important now than ever, and suggests ways our communities can revive and reclaim it. In these times of deep division and deeper despair, if there is a consensus about anything in the world, it is that the future is going to be awful. There is an epidemic of loneliness, an epidemic of anxiety, a mental health crisis of vast proportions, especially among young people. There's a rise in extremist movements and governments. Catastrophic climate change. Biodiversity loss. Food insecurity. The fracturing...
The Town That Food Saved
Over the past few years, Hardwick, Vermont, a typical hardscrabble farming community of 3,000 residents, has jump-started its economy and redefined its self-image through a local, self-sustaining food system unlike anything else in America. Even as the recent financial downturn threatens to cripple small businesses and privately owned farms, a stunning number of food-based businesses have grown in the region. The Town That Food Saved is rich with appealing, colorful characters, from the optimistic upstarts creating a new agricultural model to the long-established farmers wary of the rapid change in the region. Hewitt, a journalist and Vermonter, delves deeply into the repercussions of this groundbreaking approach to growing food, both its astounding successes and potential limitations. The captivating story of an unassuming community and its extraordinary determination to build a vibrant local food system, The Town That Food Saved is grounded in ideas that will revolutionize the way we eat and, quite possibly, the way we live.
