Emerging Voices
The emerging voices in the anthology are ... strong assertive voices with fervent statements about life; they are distinctive voices that seek to amend the fragmentary experiences of the past and present and to provide another vision for the future; finally, they are prophetic voices that carry with them symptoms of more meaningful existence as well as innovative techniques that stimulate the fading pulse of poetry.
Against The Current: A Review of Shadrach Ambanasom ́s "Homage and Courtship"
Literature Review from the year 2008 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: none, , language: English, abstract: Though a powerful and celebrated critic and by now a good and fine creative writer, Shadrach A. Ambanasom has a characteristic tendency of inviting his critics to the dialogue table to tell them that he knows where the weakness in his work is and is therefore ready to accommodate whatever criticism this may attract.

RIOT in the MIND: A Critical Study of J. N. Nkengasong
This is an important work in literary theory and philosophy of literature. I consider the work a properly constructed path that will lead readers to the literary world of Nkengasong, and Nkengasong to a global world of literary relevance. If you have read Nkengasong before now you will be more comfortable with his works by reading Riot in the Mind: A Critical Study of J. N. Nkengasong. If you have not start with it.Dr. Lawrence Ogbo Ugwuanyi

Poetry by T.S. Eliot (Deseret Alphabet Edition)
Thomas Stearns Eliot (1888-1965) was an Anglo-American poet, essayist, publisher, playwright, literary critic and editor. Although considered a seminal modernist poet, he is best known today as the author of the poems used as the basis for the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical, "Cats." Eliot won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1948. We provide here a compilation of three slim, early volumes of Eliot's poetry. Among the poems included are two of his most famous works, "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" and "The Waste Land," complete with Eliot's own, somewhat notorious, notes on the latter. This book is in the Deseret Alphabet, a phonetic alphabet for writing English developed in the mid-19th century at the University of Deseret (now the University of Utah).
