Book Description
Jeremy Radin's second full-length collection uses as its foundation Lanford Wilson's 1979 play, Talley's Folly, detailing the 1944 courtship of a nurse's aide from a Protestant family by a German-Jewish accountant. Given in the text is the fact that, prior to the events of the play, the accountant had, for one full year, written and sent a letter a day to the nurse's aide. The poems in this series emerged from the rehearsal process of the play, in which the author played the accountant, intended as a way in which to generate a greater understanding of the character, but ended up taking on a life of their own; exploring the middle ground between actor and role, as communion between withheld desire, perceived unlovability, diasporic Jewishness, loss of faith in the body and the spaces the body occupies, and ultimately, a tremulous sort of hope.

Book Description
Before his untimely death at the age of 47, Dinesh Allirajah was one of the most versatile and accomplished writers working in the North of England. Whether as a performance poet, literary critic, wry social commentator or masterfully understated short story writer, his work was always international in scope, but local and personal in touch. Witty, irreverent, and intricately observed, his writing was informed by everything from raregroove jazz to experimental theatre, crime noir to stand-up comedy. Yet it always felt, and continues to feel, bespoke to us as readers. The short stories, in particular, allow us to eavesdrop on the most intimate, unattended moments in their characters’ lives. Here, we get to know outsiders – migrant workers, beleaguered mothers, old and unwanted regulars in a pub that’s facing a refurb – people being slowly ushered into the background, or kept at a distance. Yet it is on these peripheries – far from where everyone else is looking – that Dinesh finds his stories, here that identities are reconstructed and renegotiated, here that we learn the most about ourselves. Spanning over twenty years’ work, this definitive hardback volume presents a through-line of Dinesh’s compassion, activism, and literary perspicacity; a clarion call to find essential beauty - in art, music, sport, life - and to pass it on.

I Just Can't Get over You

Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
The following collection of Love Letters in this book are from Rita, who lived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; after she came from Naples, Italy. . I had met Rita in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the early-50's, when I was also living there. After we had gone out for a couple of years, in January, 1955, I was enlisted in the Army and sent to Camp Gordon, Georgia; and I was not able to spend close time with Rita. As I try to recall, it was about 1955 that Rita started writing the Love Letters to me; and they continued as I was moved to Fort Monmouth, N.J. and then to Camp Devon, MA. And so, the following paragraphs in this book make up the summary of the collection of Rita's Love Letters which cry out to me. Rita also would often tell me, 'I just can't stop thinking of you.' Now again, it saddens me to think and realize that I did not respond positively to Rita's motivating suggestions of us getting married. And so, after I had helped her to get a High School Diploma, she traveled back to Italy with a U. S. Government's job.

Light of the Darkness

ISBN: 152550990X
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 181
Book Description
Light of the Darkness is the remarkable, adventure-packed story of a woman on a journey dimmed by shadows at every step. Already a survivor of a great deal when we meet her at the novel’s launch, Lux is a Lorean of mixed origins who is also a successful entrepreneur (with her sister, Noire). She is, too, a unique beauty who distinguishes herself from her remarkable peers through the legacy of unimaginable torture she’s endured at the hands of many, including the two men closest to her. A fierce combatant, Lux joins up with family and friends in pursuit of personal enlightenment, and comes to understand some painful truths about her past along the way. One of them is that strength comes in many forms. Sometimes, the waves of darkness that so regularly threaten to engulf Lux require unimaginable draws on courage; other times, it’s only a matter of her lobbing a show of her characteristic sass in their direction.
