Copia
Author: Erika Meitner
Publisher: BOA Editions, Ltd.
ISBN: 1938160479
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
"The poems in Copia are about what is and what is almost-gone, what is in limbo and what won't give way, what is almost at rock bottom but still and always brimming with the possibility of miracle."—Rachel Zucker Erika Meitner's fourth book takes cues from the Land Artists of the 1960s who created work based on landscapes of urban peripheries and structures in various states of disintegration. The collection also includes a section of documentary poems about Detroit that were commissioned for Virginia Quarterly Review. Because it is an uninhabited place, because it makes me hollow, I pried open the pages of Detroit: the houses blanked out, factories absorbed back into ghetto palms and scrub- oak, piles of tires, heaps of cement block. Vines knock and enter through shattered drop-ceilings, glassless windows. Ragwort cracks the street's asphalt to unsolvable puzzles. Meitner also probes the hulking ruins of office buildings, tract housing, superstores, construction sites, and freeways, and doesn't shy from the interactions that occur in Walmart and supermarket parking lots. It is nearly Halloween, which means wrong sizes on Wal-Mart racks, variety bags of pumpkins extinguishing themselves on the stoop children from the trailer park trawling our identical lawns soon so we can give away nickels, light, sandpaper, raisins, cement. Erika Meitner was a 2009 National Poetry Series winner. Her work has appeared in American Poetry Review, Ploughshares, Tin House, The Best American Poetry 2011, Kenyon Review, and elsewhere. She is associate professor of English at Virginia Tech.

Valkyrie's Call
Author: Michelle Manus
Publisher: Seclusion Publishing
ISBN: 1954400063
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
In Aspect Society, magic is political power, secrets are as common as breath, and what you don’t know could easily get you killed… Everyone thinks they know exactly who Valkyrie Winters is: strong, deadly, and unapproachable—the most powerful Battle Aspect user in history. But they have no idea how hellish her childhood was, or that the nightmare is very far from over. Aside from her freedom, she's only ever wanted one thing: her brother's best friend, the handsome, infuriating Random Tremayne. A year ago she gave into temptation, thinking one night with the notorious playboy would get him out of her system. Instead, he's been determined to make her his ever since. Random has been in love with Valkyrie since approximately forever. But with the exception of one night together, she won’t give him the time of day. After a year spent chasing her—and having his feelings run through an emotional blender more times than he can count—he’s ready to throw in the towel. Then a chance encounter brings Valkyrie’s secrets tumbling into the light, and her actions finally start making sense. She needs his help, and he’s more than willing to give it. If he succeeds in helping her win her freedom, will they finally have a chance at happiness?
