By Light Alone
A new collection of poetry by Michael Shay that explores the thematic use of light in an individual's life. This is the poet's fourth collection.
The Weight of a Body
This collection is an insightful interpretation of the complexities of emotion and circumstance. Spanning decades and generations, with a fantastic array of settings, Michael Shay introduces characters who are delightful, tragic, and indisputably honest. Big Ed is the skeletal embodiment of perseverance in his delicate care for Mrs. P; finding a much-needed surprise at the scene of a remote accident, Michael Kincannon negotiates the balance between possibility and the burden of conscience; Renee Akschmidt and Bob Rogers enjoy a refreshing change of pace in chance meetings with odd strangers. Friends and family dance in and out of each story, their relationships edifying Shay's collection as a truly exceptional whole.
The Words I Own
The trees in Michael Shay's garden argue. Despite their moss his garden ornaments remain defiantly unnatural. Michael Shay's work is about experience: home and landscape and family, love and death and memory. It's about falling short and un-selfconscious altruism. His clouds are clouds and his rain, rain, but his clouds and rain and summers and autumns are also about love, family, death, and renewal. "Michael Shay's The Words I Own is captivating. The poems are by turns playful and heartbreaking, the manner uncluttered, generous in its amicable approach to the reader. His writing carries the resonance of a life with which most readers will identify. The Words I Own, among its many virtues, is a good read." - Marvin Bell
The Problem of Slavery in the Age of Revolution, 1770-1823
David Brion Davis's books on the history of slavery reflect some of the most distinguished and influential thinking on the subject to appear in the past generation. The Problem of Slavery in the Age of Revolution, the sequel to Davis's Pulitzer Prize-winning The Problem of Slavery in Western Culture and the second volume of a proposed trilogy, is a truly monumental work of historical scholarship that first appeared in 1975 to critical acclaim both academic and literary. This reprint of that important work includes a new preface by the author, in which he situates the book's argument within the historiographic debates of the last two decades.
