Credo
Literary Nonfiction. CREDO. I believe. No other statement is so full of intent and subversion and power. A Credo is a call to arms. It is a declaration. A Credo is the act of an individual pushing back against society, against established stigmas, taboos, values, and norms. A Credo provokes. It desires change. A Credo is an artist or community challenging dogma, and putting oneself on the front line. A Credo is art at risk. A Credo can be a marker of revolution. A Credo, is thus, the most calculating and simple form of a manifesto. CREDO creates a bridge from the philosophical to the practical, presenting a triad of creative writing manifestos, essays on the craft of writing, and creative writing exercises. CREDO: AN ANTHOLOGY OF MANIFESTOS AND SOURCEBOOKS FOR CREATIVE WRITING is a raw look at what motivates authors today.

3VOLVE
3VOLVE is a photo-poetic prospectus suggesting Man's responsibility to shape social evolution away from the habits of the Information Age, to better communicate, to touch and be touched. Introduced by a visit to the French Embassy of New York after years lived in Paris, fast-forwarded to relocation in Reims, France - setting the backdrop for Metzger's first exposure as a contemporary poet in-love, through a whirlwind of contemplation to sudden life change, paused by a spirit altering road trip across Ireland, twice, and ending with a graceful bow of gratitude in Paris. 3VOLVE displays Metzger's ability to dig profoundly into social, political and existentialist philosophies, to question and adjust readers' perspective by providing alternative viewpoints. Sensitively reading human emotion while highly conscious of her environment, Metzger prolongs moments, inhales existence, then writes in deep, steady exhales which are meditative, sensual and intim

Horace's Ars Poetica
A major reinterpretation of Horace's famous literary manual For two millennia, the Ars Poetica (Art of Poetry), the 476-line literary treatise in verse with which Horace closed his career, has served as a paradigmatic manual for writers. Rarely has it been considered as a poem in its own right, or else it has been disparaged as a great poet's baffling outlier. Here, Jennifer Ferriss-Hill for the first time fully reintegrates the Ars Poetica into Horace's oeuvre, reading the poem as a coherent, complete, and exceptional literary artifact intimately linked with the larger themes pervading his work. Arguing that the poem can be interpreted as a manual on how to live masquerading as a handbook o...
BlackRoseCity
"BlackRoseCity is a collection of poems exploring the underpinnings of interpersonal relationships in communities isolated by socio-political barriers and reflecting the memories of a city youth growing up in Norwich. The setting is the urban and suburban neighborhoods of Norwich, Connecticut. The citizens refer to it as Rose City, after its official flower. Through narrative snapshots, BlackRoseCity invites the reader to witness the lives of a small town's blossoming youth, as well as the imprisonment within a concrete garden of the town's adults, trapped in economic and psychological despair."--Back cover.
Death of a Punk
DEATH OF A PUNK Lenny Hornblower used to drive a cab. Now he finds people for a fee--$100 a day plus expenses. When Lisa Perlont calls and asks him to find her son Blinky, it seems like an easy job. Blinky hangs out at an East Village punk club called AC-DC. Lenny puts up with the noise, but when someone knocks him out in the alley and steals his wallet, he starts to take it personally. However, the search for Blinky turns up more than a young punk with a safety pin in his nose-Lenny also finds a group of equipment hijackers with a large stash of cocaine. In fact, it looks like Blinky is running a scam of his own, one that just might prove fatal. Lenny wants to do right by his client but is this any way to make a living? Murder meets the Blank Generation!
OUT | TUO
In the winter of 2012-13 and shortly after receiving her French residency, Metzger left a life she cultivated in Europe and many dreams behind. OUT TUO follows a five-year journey to recover those dreams, if not see them in a new light and from an altered, coming-of-age perspective. Now characteristic of the author, her Sixth Book of Poetry and Writings leans on existentialist thought to stress the idea of how, in fact, ?The only way out is through?, and while living in a land much more foreign than the America and Western Europe she left behind ? America, ten years later.

The Roma and Their Struggle for Identity in Contemporary Europe
Thirty years after the collapse of Communism, and at a time of increasing anti-migrant and anti-Roma sentiment, this book analyses how Roma identity is expressed in contemporary Europe. From backgrounds ranging from political theory, postcolonial, cultural and gender studies to art history, feminist critique and anthropology, the contributors reflect on the extent to which a politics of identity regarding historically disadvantaged, racialized minorities such as the Roma can still be legitimately articulated.
