The Prospector's Journal
The Prospector’s Journal By: Tim Hunt The Prospector’s Journal is a story about a young, disabled war veteran down on his luck and decides to spend his time prospecting. When he explores an old, abandon mineshaft, he finds the remains of an old prospector who has been dead for over 150 years. Next to the bones is a journal written back in the 1860s. The journal, written in the man’s own hand, tells of this old man’s discoveries. He had once recovered the entire fortune of Montezuma’s Treasure. Filled with excitement, and looking for something to do with his time, the modern-day veteran follows the dead man’s clues from the journal in an effort to discover if the treasure remains hidden.
Western Where
In his new collection, poet Tim Hunt looks for Where, and what, remains of our national myth of the West. The "West" at the heart of Tim Hunt's new poetry collection is of course a real place in terms of its geography and history, but more importantly it occupies a central space in the psychology and mythology of American identity, and the "Where" of his title situates us at the nexus of all of these dimensions. It is also a deeply personal account as Hunt writes from the perspective of a working class childhood in the hill country of northern California, and his family lore (and fiddle) appear along with places now vanishing into, and out of, memory. But the mythologized West also plays a p...
Poem's Poems and Other Poems
The wit and wisdom of Poem, the poetic poet of POEM'S POEMS AND OTHER POEMS by Tim Hunt, crackle and jump through these sprightly pages.
Voice to Voice in the Dark
"In the tradition of vagabond poets Walt Whitman, Vachel Lindsay, and Jack Kerouac (all of whom appear here), infused with the Beat spirit of John Clellon Holmes and the smoky blues of Billie Holiday (also present), this new poetry collection from Tim Hunt is a classic literary road trip across America, both the America of myth and memory, and the America of its perilous present. The paired words then and now serve as a leitmotif, recurring throughout these poems, which serve up memories (variously the author's own California youth in the middle section, and those of World War II veterans whose poignant recollections anchor the final section). But memory here is no mere exercise in nostalgia...
Fault Lines
Poetry. "The strength of Tim Hunt's nature poems drew me into this book. His observation of light, rocks, a hawk and a field mouse in 'High Desert Summer,' a California landscape, is so intense that he seems to long to become part of it. Then come the poems honoring and loving his family, whose history is made up of men and women 'getting by,' 'learning to make do,' acquiring 'that tricky pride of the poor--the failing that is success.' Here is a poet standing on the threshold of existence, acutely aware of the humans, both living and dead, existing in the rooms behind him, but wanting, 'other times,' the consolation of nature. His ambivalence is a strength and enrichment, not only for him, but for his fortunate readers"--Judith Hemschemeyer.
The Textuality of Soulwork
A new critical perspective on Kerouac's work and his textual practices.
Kerouac's Crooked Road
Now a classic, Kerouac’s Crooked Road was one of the first critical works on the legendary Beat writer to analyze his work as serious literary art, placing it in the broader American literary tradition with canonical writers like Herman Melville and Mark Twain. Author Tim Hunt explores Kerouac’s creative process and puts his work in conversation with classic American literature and with critical theory. This edition includes a new preface by the author, which takes a discerning look at the implications of the 2007 publication of the original typewriter scroll version of On the Road for the understanding of Kerouac and his novel. Although some critics see the scroll version of the novel a...
The Tao of Twang
From our largely urban and suburban reality, it is easy to laugh at the backwardness of those who do not ride a train to work clutching a laptop and latte: Every "us" needs a "them." In the poems of Tim Hunt's THE TAO OF TWANG, "them" talks back, both to return the laughter and to search for things we might need and even want, whether we imagine ourselves either "us" or "them." Keith Abbott says: "With care and honesty Tim Hunt's THE TAO OF TWANG covers a lot of territory, from raw youth to rolling total old. Bakersfield to Nashville; all the E string pit stops in between and Hunt even supplies some imaginary heavens of those perfect gigs." And Sharon Doubiago adds: "Indirectly, delightfully, Tim Hunt's poems put the Holy Writ of academia's canon under the same lens as it puts the culture of his roots.... Hilarious, thought-provoking, deeply philosophical, sometimes almost transhuman, to use Jeffers word, in the mix of subject and form from two different/almost at-war cultures, and with the help of his fantastic ear, you will know THE TAO OF TWANG. You will know why redneck Western poets write the way we do. And you will newly ponder, again, our aesthetic assumptions."
