Download or read book Jazz Me written by Lennart Lundh and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-09-29 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jazz Me is Lennart Lundh's tenth book of poetry. Continuing his overarching themes of love and loss, war and peace, the selected prose poems found here are by turn personal and universal in their examination of what it means to be human. "The prose poems of Jazz Me resonate within a reader like the song of a struck bell. When the poems aren't haunting the reader, they are busy delighting. Lennart is a scientist of the unsaid, a Maestro of unmentionables. The duty of a fine book is to take the reader -- heart, body and mind -- on a journey tothat place one desires to stay just one more moment. Jazz Me fulfills, satisfies its duty." Frank Rutledge: Clothed in August Skin "Like the characters of his prose poetry, Lennart Lundh writes with a clear punctuation: strong and assured. In Jazz Me, you will find clips, vignettes really, of both dreamers and realists, vividly painted and lushly described. But you will also find moments, like those in "Being Human," that leave you a little knocked over, a little out of breath and holding close to the poignancy of these shared moments." Jen May: Battle Cry "From opening poem to closing poem, Jazz Me plays like a mind-blowing set--the kind one used to find in old, famous, battered bars, where only the best played. The intelligence of choreographed improvisation fuels this book. Each section, each poem, leads by unexpected notes, into the next. We need more poets like Lennart Lundh; we need more books like this." Lucy M. Logsdon: The Burning Girl; former Program Coordinator, The National Book Awards "From the pen of accomplished and most prolific poet Lennart Lundh comes Jazz Me, a treasured collection of inspiring, thought-provoking poems that hold universal appeal and resonate with the soul. Lundh's latest contribution to his chest of literary gems is not to be missed. Amazing not only is the volume of Lennart's offerings, but the sheer quality of his tone that shines like a light throughout his work. We should expect to hear more, much more, from this masterful, gifted writer and speaker." Wayne Mutza: The Fire Within "This beautifully written, original collection of poems in prose strikes out for new territory, taking the prose poem in a more confessional direction, yet the at times painful, at times positive nature of the work does not, like much poetry, become self-centered. A superb and moving read." Chuck Taylor: Poet and Vampire (a gothic novel of poems in prose) "It takes a poet with a musical spirit to pull off an entire book of prose poetry. Lennart Lundh proves his spirit can sing in his new prose poem collection Jazz Me. Lundh's many voiced speaker moves through a series of astute observations about the human condition using a physical ..".banter that turns into butterflies hatched / from the arching passion in [our] bell[ies] and hips and spine[s]..." Lundh's unflinching observations on aging and its challenges leave wonder in their wake and the reader nodding in affirmation that both sorrow and joy maintain footholds on this always uncertain terrain of love and loss we call living." Joani Reese, editor, essayist, and author of the poetry chapbooks Final Notes and Dead Letters and a full hybrid collection of prose and poetry, Night Chorus, from Lit Fest Press.

Download or read book Lyric and Liberalism in the Age of American Empire written by Hugh Foley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the difference between the 'I' of a poem--the lyric subject-- and the liberal subject of rights? Lyric and Liberalism in the Age of American Empire uses this question to re-examine the work of five major American poets, changing our understanding of their writing and the field of post-war American poetry. Through extended readings of the work of Elizabeth Bishop, Robert Lowell, Amiri Baraka, John Ashbery, and Jorie Graham, Hugh Foley shows how poets have imagined liberalism as a problem for poetry. Foley's book offers a new approach to ongoing debates about the nature of lyric by demonstrating the entanglement of ideas about the lyric poem with the development of twentieth-century liberal discussions of individuality. Arguing that the nature of American empire in this period--underpinned by the discourse of individual rights--forced poets to reckon with this entanglement, it demonstrates how this reckoning helped to shape poetry in the post-war period. By tracing the ways a lyric poem performs personhood, and the ways that this person can be distinguished from the individual envisioned by post-war liberalism, Foley shows how each poet stages a critique of liberalism from inside the standpoint of 'lyric'>. This book demonstrates the capacities of poetry for rethinking its own relation to history and politics, providing a new perspective on a vital era of American poetry.
