The Saints of Capitalism
"The Saints of Capitalism" is Benjamin Schmitt at his headlong, urgent, desperately funny best. These poems, both colloquial and meticulously wrought, offer the sense of looking outward from the center of a long emergency, where the everyday, the absurd, and the downright uncanny have begun to blend. But a deep humanity underlies Schmitt's sharp wit: Look at all that needs saving, he tells us, which also means that much is worth saving. What an exhilarating and consoling book this is!
How the Quiet Breathes
"How the Quiet Breathes' is a collection of essays, nearly all of them published previously in small magazines. They are international in scope, dealing with Russia, Romania and Moldova, going back 25 years and moving forward into the present. The author has lived and worked in these countries. John Michael Flynn's language dazzles to a very real end. The range of tones and locales he uses is impressive but more impressive is the feeling invested in what almost inevitably slips through time's fingers.
Writings on Art and Literature
Despite Freud's enormous influence on twentieth-century interpretations of the humanities, there has never before been in English a complete collection of his writings on art and literature. These fourteen essays cover the entire range of his work on these subjects, in chronological order beginning with his first published analysis of a work of literature, the 1907 "Delusion and Dreams in Jensen's Gradiva" and concluding with the 1940 posthumous publication of "Medusa's Head." Many of the essays included in this collection have been crucial in contemporary literary and art criticism and theory. Among the subjects Freud engages are Shakespeare's Hamlet, The Merchant of Venice, King Lear, and ...
Quarantine Songs
In Anno Diaboli 2020 the world plunged into an immense depression. Pushed into the dark by COVID 19 and the increasingly sinister politics of our social divisions, some of us retreated into the shell of an unimaginable loneliness. Carmen Firan and Adrian Sangeorzan used the tools of poetry against this existential collapse. In these poems written together, or composed in their singular register, they resisted heroically. Should a better future get here, you can also thank these poems.
Searching for the White Magician
The book explores diverse themes, from the role of institutions to personal purpose, from religion and spirituality to self-exploration. The reader can discover inner resources and paths to spiritual growth, which in turn can serve as catalysts for self-advancement, experimenting the challenge stated in the book: "Let us choose a dream we've always had and transform it into reality."
Fearless
Father Mike Albertino lives in fear that his congregation will discover he has become an atheist. Worn down by financial problems in his old parish and relentless terrorist bombings in their decaying city, Mike is overwhelmed by his own inability to help terrified people. In the midst of all this chaos, he encounters what appears for all the world to be an angel. Shortly thereafter, he meets Jenna, a young woman about his age who, inexplicably, cannot feel fear. Mike and Jenna become friends and discover that her disorder is the result of something deeply mysterious in her past. This novel explores themes of faith, how we know what is real, and the myriad ways frightened people cope in our increasingly fear-filled world: through religious faith, science-based medicine, and the more common method of denial.
