Lyons, Mari (illustrator). ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 2000). 2000 1st edition thus. 8vo (160 x 235mm). Ppxviii,509. B/w illustrations by Mari Lyons. White cloth-backed boards, spine titled in gilt. Slightly used copy in good dust-wrapper. "[Nick Lyons] has at last assembled his favourite pieces into an illustrated collection that will be enjoyed by anyone who fishes or loves to read about fishing. Lyons is a pleasure to read because he so admirably re-creates the essence of angling: the meditative rhythm of casting, the burst of adrenaline when a fish strikes, the quiet joy of standing in a river. He recounts delightful stories of eccentric fishermen, heroic successes and abysmal failures, treacherous streams, and particularly wily fish that elude even the cleverest angler's schemes." A compilation of the very best writing, taken from several of his earlier books, from this most literate of angling authors, Nick Lyons. Well worth a read. "Nick Lyons writes about life and fishing with a compelling mix of familiarity and innocence. He knows what he's talking about, but it never ceases to amaze and delight him. And he's honest. This is real fishing done by real people in the world as it is, not one of those stylized versions of reality where the hero always catches fish and never has to go to work." (John Gierach). .

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Acclaimed by Adrienne Rich as 'fierce, sensuous . . . a work of great beauty and moral imagination,' In Another Place, Not Here tells of two contemporary Caribbean women who find brief refuge in each other on an island in the midst of political uprising. Elizete, dreaming of running to another place to escape the harshness of her daily life on the island, meets Verlia, an urban woman in constant flight who has returned to her island birthplace with hopes of revolution. Their tumultuous story moves between city and island, past and future, fantasy and reality.Libri GmbH, Europaallee 1, 36244 Bad Hersfeld 256 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Shinkichi Takahashi is one of the truly great figures in world poetry. In the classic Zen tradition of economy, disciplined attention, and subtlety, Takahashi lucidly captures that which is contemporary in its problems and experiences, yet classic in its quest for unity with the Absolute. Lucien Stryk, Takahashi's fellow poet and close friend, here presents Takahashi's complete body of Zen poems in an English translation that conveys the grace and power of Takahashi's superb art. 'A first-rate poet . . . [Takahashi] springs out of some crack between ordinary worlds: that is, there is some genuine madness of the sort striven for in Zen.' -- Robert Bly; 'We visit places in Takahashi that we once may have visited in a dream, or in a moment too startling to record the perception. . . . You need know nothing of Zen to become immersed in his work. You will inevitably know something of Zen when you emerge.' -- Jim Harrison, American Poetry Review.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Few artists have captured the emotional, sexual, and political chaos of modern urban life as perceptively as David Wojnarowicz, whom Out magazine has called 'an acute observer of the unmapped region surrounding his heart and one of the best writers of his generation.' In journal entries from age seventeen until his AIDS-related death at thirty-seven, In the Shadow of the American Dream chronicles the life of a radical artist who unequivocally defied bigotry even as he became a target for the right wing. It tells the story of Wojnarowicz's creative birth, from publishing his first photographs and writing what would become The Waterfront Journals to completing his tour de force, Close to the Knives, at the height of his fame. In the Shadow of the American Dream is finally a record of the private Wojnarowicz, falling in love, exploring erotic possibilities on the Hudson River piers, becoming overwhelmed by the demands of survival, and searching for the pleasure and freedom he believed one could live on.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A nameless rider plods through the desert toward a dusty Western town shimmering on the horizon. In his latest novel, Robert Coover has taken the familiar form of the Western and turned it inside out. The lonesome stranger reaches the town - or rather, it reaches him - and he becomes part of its gunfights, saloon brawls, bawdy houses, train robberies, and, of course, the choice between the saloon chanteuse or the sweet-faced schoolmistress whom he loves. Throughout, Robert Coover reanimates the Western epics of Zane Grey and Louis L'Amour, infusing them with the Beckettian echoes, unique comic energy, and exuberant prose that have made him one of the most influential figures in contemporary American literature. It is, as The Washington Post Book World put it, 'a fast-forward, ribald vision of the American West, a free-for-all that slides from surreal to ridiculous like a circus-goer's grin through a funhouse mirror . . . a heady frisson, a salon entertainment, one helluva ride.'.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A sweeping story of love, art, and boxing, beginning in 1916 Paris, the lives of three people are intertwined against the backdrop of World War I Europe and New York.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Kenneth Lonergan is known for his trademark humor and genius for capturing the real heart and soul of human interactions. Time magazine raved that he is 'among our most gifted, unflinching and unpretentious new playwrights', and called his first play, This Is Our Youth, one of the ten best plays of 1998. With The Waverly Gallery, Lonergan has once again shown himself to have 'one of the keenest ears of any working playwright' (Ben Brantley, The New York Times).

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In Transit Authority, Tony Sanders continues his investigation of contemporary urban metaphysical pathos. The book is made up of three sequences that mark the early and late junctures of the twentieth century: the first, a series of poems that investigate the early part of the century; the second, meditations based on the 1930s photographs by Berenice Abbott; and the third, 'Reckoning,' in which, with spare lyricism, Sanders meditates on where this century has brought us. He looks with rueful intrigue at a landscape inundated with near misses and has-beens. While it is tempting to turn away from the common predicament, his poems quietly urge us to keep looking. As the poet concludes, though 'things aren't what they should be according to the map . . . we have to press on in search of our bearings.'.
