No Life But This
No Life But This: A Novel of Emily Warren Roebling, is based on the life of Emily Roebling, considered to be the first woman field engineer, and highly instrumental in the building of the Brooklyn Bridge. It is the perfect time to bring this remarkable woman’s story to light in an era when women continue to fight for equality and to be included in STEM careers. Emily Roebling became a liaison for her husband, chief engineer of the Brooklyn Bridge, when he fell ill in 1869. Gifted in math and science, she participated in all aspects of the construction. After the bridge she went on to stunning achievements of her own, attending law school, and traveling the world as an outspoken feminist and writer. A sensitive and comprehensive exploration of an exceptional historical figure. —Kirkus Reviews
Everything Is Rising
"The poems in Everything is Rising are vivid in imagery and deep in emotion and nostalgia. Diane takes you to places that you may not want to go, but you are a better person by having been there. -Barbara Marie Minney, author of If There's No Heaven "Memory is the mother of all wisdom" according to Aeschylus. Such sagacity stirs in Everything Is Rising. Using what the poet calls "the fossil of my voice," she distills the past's influence, waking us to a world where "blood tastes like creation." Let these pages carry you with a pulse that "has never beat gently" and on "into morning light." -Laura Grace Weldon, 2019 Ohio Poet of the Year "Everything is Rising by Diane Vogel Ferri, is an autob...

Bricolage
"To create order from chaos is what the poet achieves at his best. Defying the Third law of thermodynamics; who's to say, that there's no science to poetry? Same muted arrogance of seeking truths, absolutes, although deconstruction tells us truth does not exist? Stimac states - in a kind of Wildean preface, a one paragraph Manifesto-: that he views his "role" poetical, as a mosaicist -. Is this the call of all good poetry? The claim is well stated by this poet. Name, form, vision: it's an absurd time that we live in. Any way to bring things closer helps..., indeed, only rendering all things with dear intimacy will sustain our compass. Mosaic, collage; it's in the shimmer of collision & shift...
Heart of Flesh Literary Journal
It's so easy to get bogged down in this world -- to feel the weight of ugliness, hate, destruction, emptiness, and depression pushing down on us. If you're not careful, life will try its best to crush you. But something gentle exists outside of it, under the coarse fabric of things. There is a soft voice waiting for you to listen and hear. And it's so easy to drown it out, to overlook it, to pretend it doesn't exist, or simply not hear it through the noise.Jesus is the whisper in the chaos. Our contributors see Him in the peripheral, call out to Him from the dark places and wait for His voice, feel the peace in His gentle light, or recognize the weight of His absence in an absurd, seemingly meaningless world.In this issue, you'll find laughter and despair, the everyday moments and the sublime, brokenness and healing, pain and joy, and in everything, bubbling underneath the surface, Jesus -- waiting, whispering, and placing His finger on everything.
