V krátkých hutných povídkách s autobiografickými prvky cestujeme mezi severními Čechy, Brdy, polabskou nížinou, Brnem a Gruzií. Autor barvitým jazykem popisuje prchavé okamžiky všedního dne natolik sugestivně, že čtenáři i posluchači cítí vůni daného prostředí nebo dne. Bez problémů se vciťují do pocitů hlavního hrdiny, který utíká a zároveň hledá a sám neví před čím a co.

Written during the profound global upheaval between 2019 and 2023, In Water Not Blood braids ancient traditions of nature-based spirituality, dreaming, song and prayer with the realities and anxieties of modern life. These poems are as much soft and spiritual as they are rage-filled and disillusioned. A powerful account of the author's journey to reclaim her connection to her ancestors and to the Earth. In Water Not Blood is a celebration of the healing power of nature and art and is an urgent cry for collective transformation.

The women in Allison Adair’s debut collection—luminous and electric from the first line to the last—live in places that have been excavated for gold and precious ores. They understand the nature of being hollowed out, of being “the planet’s stone / core as it tries to carve out one secret place and fails.” And so, as these poems take us from the midst of the Civil War to our current era, they chart fairy tales that are at once unsettling and painfully familiar, never forgetting that cruelty compels us to search for tenderness.

In this book, there's life, love, heartache, humor, bronc riding, horse races complete from the starting gates to the finish line, and so much more. Every minute is a different adventure. I even put in Secretariat's Triple Crown races, written in poetry, from the gates down to the wire. It is a book that explains the ups and downs of 25 years through a jockey's eyes and how God helped me through the rough times. So skip to a minute, any minute, and enjoy the many adventures, from bronc riding, to tornadoes, to winning races. God bless you and have a great day.

Cameron McGill’s debut collection of poetry, In the Night Field, spotlights the effects of memory: its startling artistry, varied discontents, and casual fallibility. These poems chart the complex relationship between mental health and place; the difficult paths home can be lonely and circuitous, the emotional coordinates we map along the way a reminder of those intimate regions that hold and haunt us. Between the attentive, persistent self and the longed-for, absent other arises a fragmented conversation, an exchange that’s in a constant state of arrival.

Heart over Time encapsulates the sense of intrigue, of appointed times, and of personal election that permeates the writer's work throughout.

Denise Levertov has called the poet Pattiann Rogers “a visionary of reality, perceiving the material world with such intensity of response that impulse, intention, meaning, interconnections beyond the skin of appearance are revealed.” The consistent theme In Flickering, her new collection, is the very breadth and prodigiousness of the universe itself. These wise poems, many inspired by various kinds of flickering actions in plants, animals, and natural processes, move nimbly between inner and outer worlds.
