Book Description
Gingerly, I picked my way through the tall stalks flinching at the possibility of vipers. I was terrified of snakes, just terrified. Staring at the huge thorn bushes - great monsters baring tough green claws - I started to feel nauseous. My mind became a city at rush hour. It flashed anxious thoughts at me like traffic signals. Had it really come to this? Bumming in a Turkish field? And then it happened - the meeting that would alter my destiny within this patch of Mediterranean scrubland. The encounter that would change me. Forever. "Engaging and thought-provoking. The act of reading this seemed to affect me on a level beyond the words," Claire Raciborska, Growing Wild and Free. "I consider myself a person who is connected to nature, somebody who respects the earth; this book has me walking through the world with all my senses opened." Phoenix Rises Poetry

Book Description
Loyalty can hold us together... or it can blind us completely. Decades after her "departure" from this world, Althea Noble Bouleau has returned to reclaim the throne of Blackthorn Grove. But she's not the same witch who left years ago, and her obsession with Emmaline could mean the end of Savannah's most powerful coven. As Althea's motives start to unfold, she vanishes with Emmaline, leaving Katie and Gabriel with a cold trail to find them. But Katie also has problems closer to home to deal with, like the expansion of MagicInk and an employee suddenly showing signs that his recent bout with a vampire was more than just a bad memory. And then there's the warlock who just arrived in town. The clock is ticking, and Katie is running out of time as a blanket of darkness begins to fall over the city.

The Exile's Papers: The dirt's passion is flesh sorrow
Author: Wayne Clifford
Publisher: The Porcupine's Quill
ISBN: 1123603030
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
Wayne Clifford’s The Exile’s Papers first appeared in 2007 with the publication of The Duplicity of Autobiography, but this creative project – a four-part series of hundreds of surreal, straightforward, narrative or mythic, and endlessly varying sonnets – is the culmination of decades of effort. In 2009 the series continued with The Face As Its Thousand Ships, and now emerges the third installment: The Dirt’s Passion Is Flesh Sorrow. Described by critics as ‘resonant’, ‘striking’, ‘quixotic’, ‘elegant’, ‘ribald’ and ‘jazzy’, Clifford’s sonnets defy categories or boundaries. He is a master of the form and every page is an example of how a great poet can use a complicated structure to achieve depth of thought, beauty and explosive resolutions (or, in many cases, questions). In fact, every poem reinvents the sonnet itself, and, despite all poems sharing the same form, each one is sharply, conclusively differentiated from the others. These are sonnets like you’ve never read before. Clifford often draws on his own life experiences – fatherhood, love, death and uncertainty – but he also has plenty to say about God, pop culture and the foolhardiness of certain current political figures. In the end, though, the collection remains a remarkably cohesive, intelligent and death-defying foray into an ancient form that never knew what hit it.
