Few people hunting today are really aware of the history of their sport. This concise book shows how this much misunderstood sport has survived and flourished through the centuries of change, to the benefit of the fox and its environment.

Centuries of Native American curses, unexplained deaths and missing persons, political corruption, gender and racial bigotry, a torrid love affair, an old friend running from the mob, a cast of crazy locals, international crime, terrorism, rumors of organ harvesting and an old superstition about a preternatural werewolf on the prowl ~ Welcome to Juniper!!!

Set against the cultural and political backdrop of interwar Europe and the Americas, "Poetry in Pieces" is the first major study of the Peruvian poet Cesar Vallejo (1892-1938) to appear in English in more than thirty years. Vallejo lived and wrote in two distinct settings - Peru and Paris - which were continually crisscrossed by new developments in aesthetics, politics, and practices of everyday life; his poetry and prose therefore need to be read in connection with modernity in all its forms and spaces. Michelle Clayton combines close readings of Vallejo's writings with cultural, historical, and theoretical analysis, connecting Vallejo - and Latin American poetry - to the broader panorama of international modernism and the avant-garde, and to writers and artists such as Rainer Maria Rilke, James Joyce, Georges Bataille, and Charlie Chaplin. "Poetry in Pieces" sheds new light on one of the key figures in twentieth-century Latin American literature, while exploring ways of rethinking the parameters of international lyric modernity.
