Paperback. Zustand: New. WINNER OF THE MAINE LITERARY AWARD FOR POETRY! FINALIST FOR THE JULIE SUK AWARD! SELECTED AS ONE OF NPR'S 2018 GREAT READS! ONE OF BOOK RIOT'S 50 MUST READ POETRY COLLECTIONS OF 2019! In 1912 the State of Maine forcibly evicted an interracial community of roughly forty-five people from Malaga Island, a small island off the coast of Phippsburg, Maine. Though Malaga had been their home for generations, nine residents (including the entire Marks family) were committed to the Maine School for the Feeble Minded in Pownal, Maine. The others struggled to find homes on other islands or on the mainland, where they were often unwelcome. The Malaga school was dismantled and rebuilt as a chapel on another island. Seventeen graves were exhumed from the Malaga cemetery, consolidated into five caskets, and reburied at the Maine School for the Feeble Minded. Just one year after the start of the eviction proceedings, the Malaga community was erased. Midden confronts the events and over one hundred years of silence that surround this shameful incident in Maine's history. Utilizing a wide range of poetic styles-epistolary poems to ghosts, persona poems, erasure poems, interior poems, interviews and instructions, poems framed both in the past and in the present-Midden delves into the vital connections between land, identity, and narrative and asks how we can heal the generations and legacies of damage that result when all three of these are deliberately taken in an attempt to rob people of their very humanity. The book is a poetic excavation of loss, a carving of the landscape of memory, and a reckoning with and tribute to the ghosts we carry and step over, often without our even knowing it.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Death Fluorescence is a triumphant and visually stunning collection. Poet Julia Bouwsma expertly crafts an exploration of life on this Earth woven with the wonders of parasitic worms, Jewish identity, the persistent neurosis of mice. Grounded in visualizations of nature bordering on the spiritual, with moons that hemorrhage, ghost apples, and a quarry's snow-mounded shoulder, one can dig their fingers into the soil of this collection and watch the speaker grow throughout. Each page is 'an entire universe of starry luminescent decay'-from the contrapuntal to the Markov Sonnet, these poems are anything but typical. The poet's poignant language demands to be heard and asks the reader to 'bite down among stippled wormholes and taste our blinding sweetness.' Bouwsma herself puts it best: this collection 'will lift into the sky like a cathedral toward heaven'-it is transcendent, it is revolutionizing, it is fluorescent.…
