Book excerpt: IN no province of the vast Roman empire, as it existed in the middle of the third century, did Nature wear a richer or a more joyous garb than she displayed in Proconsular Africa, a territory of which Carthage was the metropolis, and Sicca might be considered the centre. The latter city, which was the seat of a Roman colony, lay upon a precipitous or steep bank, which led up along a chain of hills to a mountainous track in the direction of the north and east. In striking contrast with this wild and barren region was the view presented by the west and south, where for many miles stretched a smiling champaign, exuberantly wooded, and varied with a thousand hues, till it was terminated at length by the successive tiers of the Atlas, and the dim and fantastic forms of the Numidian mountains.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Women's Studies. "Motherhood is bound both to life's joy and death's ether, which complicates a woman's relationship to her own body's emotional and physical permeablity. In LOOK LOOK LOOK Callista Buchen writes beautiful prose fragments about and the tendrils that bind her to motherhood and that intersection with mortality. This moving collection situates motherhood as a climate, a destination and reminds us that many of the connections bodies make are often as ephemeral as 'clouds made of mouths.'"--Carmen Gimenez Smith "Drawing from surrealism, the grotesque, and even horror, Callista Buchen's LOOK LOOK LOOK explores how alien one's own body--one's own self--becomes through pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood. In these prose poems, Buchen's mother-speaker 'build[s] and dissolve[s],' is both 'double and half.' The line between self and other, the line between construction and deconstruction, and '[t]he line between making and being made' have never felt so thin, so permeable. This is a profound book of poems."--Maggie Smith "In this ravishingly honest collection of prose poems, Callista Buchen look look looks at every facet of mothering, from child loss to childbirth, from loss of self and alienation from the body to a hard-won and completely unsentimental empowerment--mother as process; 'mother as birthplace, where woman becomes location.' The poems are often dimly lit as a diorama or a womb. They embrace pregnancy's darkness, the monstrous cleaving of the birthing body, the milky flood of nursing, and the complex grief of the self that is estranged in the making of another human being. The poems have the rhythm and image-centeredness of ritual; even the book's title is a trinity, suggesting the multifocality of women's experience and functioning as an entreaty for the reader to look, please. When the speaker comes into her authority it arrives less with triumph than with danger: 'There isn't a dam you can build that I can't break. Charisma, chiasma, power. See what I will do.' This is a book about mothering like no book about mothering that has ever been mothered forth."--Diane Seuss "A mother is full of cracks, this vessel. 'Everywhere tears, everywhere salt,' writes Callista Buchen's in her stunning debut collection, LOOK LOOK LOOK. In these poems, Buchen does not look away from motherhood, body, or loss--but stares directly in its eyes. These stirring poems radiate both the beauty and burn of being a mother, two selves of a woman--they meditate, Your body is not your own. LOOK LOOK LOOK brings us, birthed and swaddled, the poems we need in the world right now. This incredible collection is fed by an honesty and a fierceness mothers and women know deep inside them--I am so dangerous. I cannot remember the last time I finished a collection and wanted to return to the start to read it again--but this is that book. I will return to these poems for years. I cannot recommend this book enough."--Kelli Russell Agodon

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Callista' is a novel by the English Catholic theologian, priest and writer St John Henry Newman. It is set in the mid-3rd century in the city of Sicca Veneria in the Roman province of Africa. It deals with the persecution of the Christians community under Emperor Decius. The main character of the novel is Callista, a young and beautiful Greek girl, who has arrived from Greece some years previously with her brother Aristo; they work for Agellius's uncle Jucundus, carving statues of pagan gods. She is a gifted young woman, yet she is unhappy with her life. Another main character is the troubled young Christian Agellius, who wants to marry Callista. He is torn between his faith and his brother (Juba), his stepmother Gurta, a pagan witch, and his pagan uncle Jucundus, who all want to bring him away from the Christian faith. Agellius soon meets the mysterious Christian priest Caecilius (later identified as St. Cyprian of Carthage), who becomes a father figure for him and strengthens his faith again.
