A Missing Rose
A Missing Rose: From Me to You, My Life, My Poetry Universal and emotionally charged, A Missing Rose chronicles one man s journey in verse a journey that, ultimately, belongs to all of us. Engulfed in the grief of losing his beloved mother, and the brave battle she fought with cancer beforehand, author Ozzie Lamont Anderson Jr. was inspired to write the 50 poems in the book. A Missing Rose is one man s ultimate expression of innermost anguish and, ultimately, a discussion of what it means to remain relentless and determined in face of life s most challenging traumas. Far from a lamenting collection, the book chronicles happiness, pain, love, forgiveness and marriage, to name a few an expression of all those things that bring us together as humans. Each work in this powerful collection paints a portrait of a moment in every individual s life. Readers will relate to the emotions expressed within A Missing Rose, and perhaps will find succor within it to get their struggles of their own. The book will inspire readers to embrace not just the author s deepest feelings upon writing each verse, but the deep emotions each evokes within themselves."

Letters from Langston
Langston Hughes, one of America's greatest writers, was an innovator of jazz poetry and a leader of the Harlem Renaissance whose poems and plays resonate widely today. Accessible, personal, and inspirational, HughesÕs poems portray the African American community in struggle in the context of a turbulent modern United States and a rising black freedom movement. This indispensable volume of letters between Hughes and four leftist confidants sheds vivid light on his life and politics. Letters from Langston begins in 1930 and ends shortly before his death in 1967, providing a window into a unique, self-created world where Hughes lived at ease. This distinctive volume collects the stories of Hughes and his friends in an era of uncertainty and reveals their visions of an idealized worldÑone without hunger, war, racism, and class oppression.
The Book of Judas
Brendan Kennelly's Book of Judas, a 400-page epic poem in twelve parts, became the number one bestselling book in Ireland. As well as receiving rapturous reviews, Brendan Kennelly won the Sunday Independent/Irish Life Award for the book and earned the ultimate accolade of 'Kerryman of the Year'. Not merely lost but irredeemable, Kennelly's bitterly articulate Judas speaks, dreams and murmurs - of past and present, history and myth, good and evil, of men, women and children, and of course money - until we realise that the unspeakable perpetrator of the apparently unthinkable, in penetrating the icy reaches of his own world, becomes a sly, many-voiced critic of ours. The full-sized Book of Judas is no longer available, usurped by The Little Book of Judas, a distillation of that literary monster, purged to its traitorous essence.

Inhale/Exile
"A moving and humane collection... The poems remind us poignantly of the importance of hope and love in bleak times, and pay tribute to inspiring acts of courage." – Mslexia"A confident, humane and thought-provoking debut." – Poetry Review"Ameer's poems weave a series of mesmerising journeys back and forth between Iraq and the UK, exploring the interstices and convergences between cultures, between atrocity and hope, faith and dogma, language, silence and love. She tells it bluntly, sometimes wryly, but with surgical precision and composure: each poem vibrant with the smells, tastes, textures, muscles and heartbeat of authentic experience." – Robert Walton"These poems remind us that ev...
Frontier Figures
Frontier Figures is a tour-de-force exploration of how the American West, both as physical space and inspiration, animated American music. Examining the work of such composers as Aaron Copland, Roy Harris, Virgil Thomson, Charles Wakefield Cadman, and Arthur Farwell, Beth E. Levy addresses questions of regionalism, race, and representation as well as changing relationships to the natural world to highlight the intersections between classical music and the diverse worlds of Indians, pioneers, and cowboys. Levy draws from an array of genres to show how different brands of western Americana were absorbed into American culture by way of sheet music, radio, lecture recitals, the concert hall, and film. Frontier Figures is a comprehensive illumination of what the West meant and still means to composers living and writing long after the close of the frontier.
