Absolute Solitude by Dulce Maria Loynaz Pdf

In the first comprehensive selection and translation of Dulce María Loynaz's poetry, James O'Connor invites us to hear the haunting voice of Cuba's celebrated poet, whom the Nobel Laureate Juan Ramón Jiménez terms in his Foreword, "archaic and new...tender, weightless, rich in abandon." Widely published in Spain during the 1950s, Loynaz's poetry was almost forgotten in Cuba after the Revolution. International recognition came to her late: at the age of ninety she was living in seclusion in Havana when the Royal Spanish Academy awarded her the 1992 Cervantes Prize, the highest literary accolade in the Spanish language. The first English publication of her work, Absolute Solitude contains a selection of poems from each of Loynaz's books, including the acclaimed prose poems from Poems with No Names, a selection of posthumously published work. From the Trade Paperback edition.

The School of Solitude by Luis Hernández Pdf

Poet Luis (Lucho) Hernández is legendary in his native Peru, and virtually unknown outside it. His short, tragic life–haunted by addiction and periodic reclusion in rehabilitation centers–and the mysterious circumstances surrounding his death, have made him a cult figure. Exceptionally gifted in his youth, his only three books of poetry were published by the time he was twenty-four. Until his untimely death at age thirty-six in Argentina, Luis Hernández didn’t publish another book. Yet, he did not fall silent. He wrote in cheap, school-boy notebooks, filling them with poems, musical notations, quotes (attributed and unattributed), notes to himself, translations, musings, clippings from newspapers and comic strips, and drawings, all in different colored pencils and pens. The present selection of Hernández’s poetry, the first ever in English, is drawn from these notebooks. All the original texts have been transcribed directly from the manuscript sources, correcting errors and mistranscriptions that have crept into a number of the published versions. Several poems are published here for the first time in any language. These moving poems are born under the sign of Melancholy and Nostalgia. Hernández’s unique voice evokes an irrevocably distant past from a desolate site in the present. Happiness and joy, love and fulfillment, are remembered in poetic scraps and fragments, recollected in silence, contemplated in sadness, solitude, and dream.

Blue Horses by Mary Oliver Pdf

In this stunning collection of new poems, Mary Oliver returns to the imagery that has defined her life’s work, describing with wonder both the everyday and the unaffected beauty of nature. Herons, sparrows, owls, and kingfishers flit across the page in meditations on love, artistry, and impermanence. Whether considering a bird’s nest, the seeming patience of oak trees, or the artworks of Franz Marc, Oliver reminds us of the transformative power of attention and how much can be contained within the smallest moments. At its heart, Blue Horses asks what it means to truly belong to this world, to live in it attuned to all its changes. Humorous, gentle, and always honest, Oliver is a visionary of the natural world.

Journal of a Solitude by May Sarton Pdf

The poet and author’s “beautiful . . . wise and warm” journal of time spent in her New Hampshire home alone with her garden, her books, the seasons, and herself (Eugenia Thornton, Cleveland Plain Dealer). “Loneliness is the poverty of self; solitude is richness of self.” —May Sarton May Sarton’s parrot chatters away as Sarton looks out the window at the rain and contemplates returning to her “real” life—not friends, not even love, but writing. In her bravest and most revealing memoir, Sarton casts her keenly observant eye on both the interior and exterior worlds. She shares insights about everyday life in the quiet New Hampshire village of Nelson, the desire for friends, and need for solitude—both an exhilarating and terrifying state. She likens writing to “cracking open the inner world again,” which sometimes plunges her into depression. She confesses her fears, her disappointments, her unresolved angers. Sarton’s garden is her great, abiding joy, sustaining her through seasons of psychic and emotional pain. Journal of a Solitude is a moving and profound meditation on creativity, oneness with nature, and the courage it takes to be alone. Both uplifting and cathartic, it sweeps us along on Sarton’s pilgrimage inward. This ebook features an extended biography of May Sarton.

Solitude by Carmela Ciuraru Pdf

A literary sanctuary for what Shakespeare called “sessions of sweet silent thought,” this exquisite gathering of poems speaks to the consolations of solitude. Here is Wordsworth wandering “lonely as a cloud”; Poe confiding “all I loved, I loved alone”; Yeats’s communion with “the deep heart’s core”; and Han Shan’s heart of a hermit, “clean as a white lotus.” From Sir Edward Dyer’s “My Mind to Me a Kingdom Is,” to the spiritual searching of the Transcendentalists, to the meditative verse of Jorie Graham, some of the most indelible poems from every time and culture have grown out of the aloneness inherent in the poet’s art. The poems collected here, whether reflecting on the soul or on nature, addressing an absent loved one, or honoring the self, form a book of respite and contemplation, and a beautiful tribute to the interior life.

The Caiplie Caves by Karen Solie Pdf

‘Introducing Karen Solie, I would adapt what Joseph Brodsky said some thirty years ago of the great Les Murray [. . .] – she is the one by whom the language lives’. – Michael Hofmann, LRB The Canadian Karen Solie is rapidly establishing a reputation as one of the most important poets at work today. Her fifth book of poetry, The Caiplie Caves, is a profound and timely consideration of the nature of crisis: at its heart is the figure of St Ethernan, a seventh-century Irish missionary to Scotland who retreated to the caves of the Fife coast in order to decide whether to establish a priory on May Island or pursue a life of solitude. His decision would have been informed by realities of war, misinformation and power; Solie imagines this crisis also complicated by grief, confusion – and a faith placed under extreme duress. Woven through Ethernan’s story are poems that orbit the caves’ geographical location, and range through the recurring violences of history and myth, of personal and public record. In poems of the utmost lyric subtlety and argumentative strength, Solie addresses how we might distinguish self-delusion from belief, belief from knowledge – and how, in the frailty of our responses, we can find the courage to move forward.

Attn: Solitude by Mez Breeze Pdf

Don't mistake this for an experimental poetry book. This is a five-year archival snapshot of text-streaming transmissions; a recording that documents continuity. The streams captured in this volume were composed in a period after net.art email forums had disappeared. 'New media' had, in the meantime, ceased to be new. The arts terms 'post-internet' and 'the new aesthetic' describe this state of affairs where online and offline, digital and analogue, can no longer be separated. Since this blending had always been characteristic for mezangelle, Breeze's text streaming both practised and transcended 'new media'. Her streaming of consciousness is wired in every syllable. 'Attn: Solitude isn't a straight poetry book, nor is it a strict collation of cyborgian-emulated [chap+lady]book texts. The codework contents in this book do fragmentally fold [+ spit out of/from] poetic conventions. These microtexts do presentation-lap gently [yes: gently, albeit clinically, in some instances] at the cusp of code and poiesis. Attn: Solitude employs mezangelle - a type of quasi-cobbled conventionset born from 90s digital fomentation - to form packets of code-laced and culturally inflected output. You may choose to snippetswim in[to] these units of mezangelled output, these comprehension chips dragged kicking from one medium and screaming into another. You may not. If not, then ... ? If-then-else.' -- Mez Breeze
