Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Have you ever dreamed of leaving everything behind and taking off to see the world? After completing an eight-thousand-mile walking trek from Pennsylvania, through Oregon, and on to Arkansas in his twenties, Bud Kenny wanted nothing more than to do it all again-but this time with his wife. The only problem was he couldn't find a woman who wanted to hike across America with him.until he met and married Patricia. Footloose in America follows the fifty-something newlyweds as they leave their home in Arkansas and start walking toward Maine. All they bring with them is their mule, Della, who pulls an electricity-generating wagon that converts into a stage upon which Bud performs his poetry.

From the Amish people's perspective on what our excessively high-tech society overlooks to immigration issues as seen from a migrant worker's vantage point, the Kennys stumble across a colorful cast of characters throughout their incredible journey.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. This book is a whimsical look at the author's all-time teams by various categories; including animal names, ethnicity, crazy nicknames, decades, etc. The whimsy, however, is prelude to over 60 biographical sketches as well as the author's opinions of the impact that steroids, the designated hitter, relief pitching, the explosion of salaries, and the introduction of African American and Latino players has had on the great game. The author realizes that many of his readers will disagree with his choice of players, but that goes to the essence of being a fan. Arguing about who was better, Willie, Mickey, or the Duke fuels the true baseball lover's passions as much as seeing his team pull out a victory in the bottom of the ninth. So grab yourself a beer and enjoy this look at our national pastime from this zany perspective of a lifelong fan.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. This collection addresses issues of identity as two people find themselves living in an uncommon landscape. Through hybrid narrative prose poems, Hank and an unnamed narrator try to navigate their relationship and understand their identities amid a landscape that offers them almost nothing. The continent at first seems empty, but something emerges in the vacuum of Antarctica. The narrator?s gender skips and changes, and the characters? self-awareness grows into a sort of horror. Dennis James Sweeney?s poems consider the fullness of emptiness, revealing attempts to love and grow when surrounded by a white and frigid landscape that seems to go on forever. The space of these poems is something beyond the Antarctic of scientific exploration, the icy outpost that has served for so long as a masculine proving ground for polar explorers. This is the Antarctica of domestic disharmony, of love amid loneliness, where two people encounter themselves in the changeless breadth at the end of the world.In the Antarctic Circle is the winner of the Autumn House Press 2020 Rising Writer Prize in Poetry.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. "If you want to identify me, ask me not where I live, or what I like to eat, or how I comb my hair, but ask me what I am living for, in detail, and ask me what I think is keeping me from living fully for the thing I want to live for."--Thomas Merton Some of today's most popular spiritual writers--including Rev. James Martin, S.J.; Bishop Robert Barron; Robert Ellsberg; Rev. Daniel P. Horan; and Kaya Oakes--explore the meaning of life and what we live for using Thomas Merton's life and writings as a guide. In his address before the US Congress, Pope Francis praised Merton as one of four exemplary Americans. This was no surprise to the thousands who already know and appreciate the twentieth-century monk, but there were many listening that day who still have no idea who Merton is. What I Am Living For offers readers new to Merton, as well as longtime enthusiasts, an opportunity to see how the influential twentieth-century monk and writer continues to encourage the awakening of faith in the twenty-first century. The book is in two parts. Each contributor to part one focuses on an aspect of the spiritual life that is of vital importance today and on which Merton made a profound impact. These include: Martin--Finding who God intends you to be Ellsberg--The spiritual need for solitude and stability Oakes--The importance of coming to terms with our sexuality, whether married, single, or celibate Horan--The importance of dialogue with God, culture, society, and people of other faiths Part two features shorter, often more personal reflections on the future of faith, the life and teachings of Merton, and what he still says to anyone who seeks a relationship with God. Contributors include such well-known writers as Barron; Sue Monk Kidd; Pico Iyer; Paula Huston; Ilia Delio, O.F.M.;  Paul Quenon, O.C.S.O.; and Sylvia Boorstein.…
