Between First and Second Sleep
A verse collection from San Francisco poet and painter Tamsin Smith. Praised by peers, including poets Matthew Zapruder, Donald Beagle, Beau Beausoleil, Mary Julia Klimenko, and Kevin Killian, who writes of her debut collection: "Tamsin Smith's WORD CAVE is a book to savor with great pleasure. It's not only a kind of poetry new to me, it's several kinds, each one impressive in a different way, and yet each style linked to the others by the gifts Smith brings with her onto the page. A love of words, a love of people, both as individuals and en masse, a rare ability to bring philosophy into poetry in an understated and thus all the more powerful way. An exquisite sense of the changes, both profound and wry, that time makes in our lives without ever our noticing them. How does she, I wonder? It is perhaps her greatest gift: to see so clearly the intangible, the invisible essence, what some wise Indians refer to as "aatma."
The Profound M

Xisle
A political thriller spanning four decades of love, intrigue, and the fraught history of US-Cuba relations, written by a former congressional aid and published poet. In XISLE, a novel, Ada Tremont finds herself just out of grad school and working for COG, a government accountability organization. One chance encounter plucks her from the intern pool and into the center of a daring hunt to discover the truth behind the myth of the powerful leader of the Cuban-American exile community. As Ada and her mentor at the watchdog group Peter Vane separate fact from fiction, a web of lies threatens to entangle them and the eclectic group they've assembled to help. Will the couple and their rag-tag band, which includes a charismatic former diplomat, a fearless investigative journalist, a barrier-breaking Congressman, and a nimble-fingered torch singer prevail or be swallowed by the shadow of the man known as "el murcielago."

My Name Is Tamsin
The young heroine, Tamsin, has capabilities that resemble the beginnings of super powers but are in reality things anyone can accomplish if they don’t know they can’t, and some people in this world already do. The book is written to depict characters that are in part typical of their natural age so readers can relate to them. It is set mostly in New Zealand. This first book sets the stage for the formation of the team which will fight conspiracies to gain control of the new United World Government thus preserving the new world peace. The story starts with two children, a girl and a boy, both found abandoned, one in America and one in New Zealand. The children are about 2 years old. The u...
Everything Indicates
Local poets were hoisted up into the windy towers of the new eastern span of the San Francisco--Oakland Bay Bridge in April 2011 to observe and map its progress and something of its soul. Their words, enhanced by the luminous photographs of Thomas Michael Alleman, are gathered in Everything Indicates, a tribute to the people designing and building the new bridge, and the waters it will span. Set to open in 2013, the eastern span will be the world's largest self-anchored suspension span bridge; however, beyond this remarkable feat of engineering, the bridge is a literal lifeline for the diverse communities, individuals, and businesses of the San Francisco Bay Area and far beyond. The poems and photographs of Everything Indicates, which takes its title from Walt Whitman's "Crossing Brooklyn Ferry," are themselves a bridge, bringing us closer to the common experience that unites us all.
Bach Flower Remedies
"Today, disease and death control us ever more strongly with a litany of viruses, cancers, and heart disorders. The causes may be vaccinations, environmental poisons, despoliation of food, or pollution of the elements--earth, water and air. For Bach the cause was clear and it is clear today: 'It is only because we have forsaken Nature's way for man's way that we have suffered, and we have only to return to be released from our trials. In the presence of the way of Nature disease has no power; all fear, all depression, all hopelessness can be set aside. There is no disease of itself which is incurable.'" --Julian Barnard In the 1920s, the physician and homeopath Dr. Edward Bach made his great...
