Body of Diminishing Motion
This collection of poems and memoir is the second title from Laurel Books, CavanKerry's Literature of Illness imprint which features poetry and prose that explores the many poignant issues associated with confronting serious physical and/or psychological illness. Sidney speaks to the author's experiences living with multiple sclerosis for four decades, as well as her personal legacy as the daughter of a strong-willed Holocaust survivor. Body of Diminishing Motion will speak to anyone who has been touched by illness and refused to succumb to its power.
Bereft and Blessed
The book focuses on the author's heritage, which is dominated by the Holocaust in Europe, during which many of her forebears lost their lives, and also on the author's own personal holocaust caused by the MS (Multiple Sclerosis) with which she has been afflicted since her mid-twenties. She is, then, doubly bereft. And because of the way she has come to terms with both forms of holocaust-- by writing about them and prevailing despite them--she is richly blessed.

He addresses the God of the Jews, of the Christians, and of the Muslims with awe and familiarity, and chants to lesser gods of his own invention. In every surprising poem, every song to life, beautiful life, Moss, by turns giddy and sorrowful, expresses a sacred sensuality and an earthy holiness. Or putting it another way: here is a mind operating in open air, unimpeded by fashion or forced thematic focus, profoundly catholic ...

Soul House
In the first book of her poetry to appear in English, acclaimed French-Jewish poet, translator, and translation-theorist Mireille Gansel crisscrosses time and extends hospitality to exiled poets and peoples in her quest to recreate a lost literary and spiritual home. | "Only a seasoned writer/translator of Gansel's stature can achieve such excellence in doing what I have called the poet's job, namely to 'pick up everything that shines / throw out the gold / keep the light.'" -- PIERRE JORIS | "Mireille Gansel's Soul House, in Joan Seliger Sidney's beautiful translation, is something to behold: a book of aftermaths, of ghost-breath in scraps of tales almost told, a post-script, a pact 'beyond...
