"The most recent in a line of great American transcendentalist
writers."--The New York Times "Bly's poems flow from ...the great
current of longing for reality, true maturity, the devotee's call
to the Beloved."--The Nation "Robert Bly changed the course of
poetry in America by opening it up to the imagination and the
deep-image aesthetic, he is dedicated to reintegrating poetry with
life--daily life, the life of the body, spiritual and political
life."--Huffington Post The Chinese-influenced strain of Bly's work
with its room for movement, spontaneity, and openness is celebrated
in Like the New Moon I Will Live My Life and most amply showcased
in its over one hundred and fifty poems. The poems, collected from
out-of-print books, chapbooks, and uncollected work spanning fifty
years, form a companion to his recent Stealing Sugar From The
Castle: New and Selected Poems. Like The New Moon I Will Live My
Life When your privacy is beginning over, How beautiful the things
are that you did not notice before! A few sweetclover plants Along
the road to Bellingham, Culvert ends poking out of driveways,
Wooden corncribs, slowly falling, What no one loves, no one rushes
towards or shouts about, What lives like the new moon, And the wind
Blowing against the rumps of grazing cows. Telephone wires
stretched across water, A drowning sailor standing at the foot of
his mother's bed, Grandfathers and grandsons sitting together.
Robert Bly is one of the most influencial poets, translators, and
editors of his generation.
Joel Oppenheimer was a student of Charles Olson at the original
Black Mountain College, a fixture in New York’s West Village, and
a lover of the NY Mets. His work embraces the taunt line of W. C
.Williams. Lessons returns the work of this essential American poet
to print. “No one else speaks with his benevolence and humor and
still touches me at the depths of my own fear and love. I think his
poems are a Godsend to us all.†—Hayden Carruth “Oppenheimer was
an immense and buoyant influence on the poesy of my contemporaries
and me.†—Andrei Codrescu Joel Oppenheimer (1930 - 1988)
published more than a dozen books of poetry.
Poetry. Bilingual Edition translated from the Spanish by Mary G.
Berg and Dennis Maloney. "This is a very valuable book Dozens of
poems are here that have never been translated into English before,
and I think Berg and Maloney have done beautifully transferring
Juan Ramon's enthusiastic calm from Spanish to English.
Terrific"--Robert Bly. This bilingual collection traces Juan Ramon
Jimenez's relationship with the sea, a major theme in his work,
from his seminal book Diary of a Poet Recently Married alongside
other poems from his body of work.
Poetry. Translation. Translated from the Spanish by Mary G. Berg
and Dennis Maloney, with an insightful introduction by Thomas
Moore, this volume presents the wisdom and philosophy of one of
Spain's most important poets. Born in 1875, Machado, along with
Juan Ramon Jimenez and Miquel de Unamuno, formed the famed
"generation of 1898," which ushered in a new Spanish poetics. In
this series of brief poems, Machado utilizes traditional Spanish
verse forms to create a wide-ranging collection. "Machado, in these
Sappho-like fragments, takes us down not only the road less
traveled but the road not seen, where transformation and
transfiguration come not from self-made millions but from changing
'love into theology'"-Thomas Rain Crowe.
Poetry. Gabriel Garcia Marquez has stated that Pablo Neruda was the
greatest poet of this century in any language. He may well be
right. In this collection of poems we see the poet in the company
of his muse, walking alongside the source of his most lyrical
inspiration: the sea. Gazing from his house on the shores of Isla
Negra, Neruda discovered a new way of seeing, as the ocean became a
living metaphor for the infinite riches of the world, gleaming in
his poetry: stones, turtles, crabs, anchors, celestial starfish, a
bronze dolphin, the figurehead of a ship, a drowned sailor. I am
grateful to White Pine Press that now I can share these poems with
my students, the community of poets, or anyone who would appreciate
Neruda's passion for existence. Gracias, companeros -- Martin
Espada.
