Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Unstuck in Time, A Memoir and Mystery on Loss and Love is a hybrid memoir focused on the sudden death of the author's 32-year-old son and a journey through grief. This memoir reveals dual mysteries: why an apparently healthy, athletic young man dies suddenly and how he remade himself before his death. Culturally timely, Unstuck in Time takes readers through parallel passages, one through the author's grief-revelations about her son's illnesses come too late-and through the author's confrontation with national grief over loses due to a world-wide pandemic. Stricken with a rare genetic disorder Marfan syndrome, the author's son was also found to have had stage four non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that no one was aware of until a medical examiner's surprising discoveries at autopsy. What was known before his death was that Blaise had conquered his addiction to drugs, finding grace in his journey. This non-traditional memoir is also a philosophical meditation on time, love, death, and finding hope again after great loss. Structurally experimental, the memoir is shaped through an anachronistic examination of the life of the author's son in prose and poetry, mirroring the way in which memory continually interrupts present. Unstuck in Time offers a window into the life of a boy become man, retaining elements of mystery, as does the strangeness and wonder of life itself.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This anthology of poetry, prose, and artwork derives from two exhibitions and ekphrastic readings in 2021. The 'Art Speaks' exhibition at the Edgewood Gallery in Syracuse, NY (July 2-August 13, 2021) featured artists and writers from the Central New York Branch of the National League of American Pen Women. The exhibition presented twenty works of art and twenty ekphrastic poems; that is, poetry created in response to what the art evokes in the poet's imagination or recall. Ekphrastic response need not employ descriptive language nor attempt to imagine what might have been in the artist's mind. Works of art and responsive poems were hung beside one another. The show encouraged a type of creative conversation among artists and poets that offered viewers various avenues to interact with each work. Art Speaks, The Catalogue, in its design and layout, encourages readers to take advantage of the opportunity to interact with the art in multiple ways and continue the conversations. In recent years, the Pen Women in the CNY Branch have presented three readings of ekphrastic poetry inspired by works of art in the Made in New York show, a signature annual event at the Schweinfurth Art Center in Auburn, NY. Included in this anthology are a number of poetry and art pairings from the 2021 Made in New York exhibition. The National League of American Pen Women was formed in October 1897 when women journalists were refused admittance to the National Press Club. Founding members included women writers, journalists, and lecturers, many prominent in their respective fields. The CNY Branch was formally admitted to the National League on October 1, 1926 and convened in the Hotel Onondaga in Syracuse, New York. Today, the League includes 60 branches and more than 1,200 members. Membership expanded over the years to embrace women artists, composers, choreographers, and women in the allied arts. The central mission of NLAPW remains the same: to encourage and recognize the work of professional standards in letters, visual and other creative arts, and provide opportunities for members to inspire and encourage one another, as well as their communities.…

Zustand: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 360 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | When famed literary giant Adrian Gerd Wahl ends his life, he sets in motion the story of Socrates is Dead Again. As existential mystery concerning the suicide of a prominent literary figure, the novel delves into his life as juxtaposed with and through the lens of a diverse group of young writer characters who wanted to be him or obsessively admired him. Like Godot in Beckett's Waiting for Godot, the central figure in this experimental narrative is largely physically absent, yet his presence is continuously felt as well as imaginatively recreated by the other characters. The co-protagonists in the novel take us into the writing life on the American literary scene. Their quest for elusive literary achievement is variously tragic, darkly humorous, and irrepressibly hopeful. Socrates is Dead Again reveals story through multi-voiced, short narratives in which story itself becomes a character. Writing as an attempt to understand, chasing fame, jealousies, reading literature, transgression, mystery in the tragedy of suicide, and hope coupled with doubt behind a writer's words are the threads that connect. The novel also explores the concept of individual authorship in the context of "death of the author" literary theory through story. Ultimately, Socrates is Dead Again is a search for the meaning of an individual's life and our struggle to be recognized in an often chaotic and indifferent world. Socrates is Dead Again was a finalist in 2019 William Faulkner-William Wisdom Creative Writing competition in the novel category and is meant to be a shared reading experience with writers and readers who work on or think about one day writing the great American novel.…
