The Worm Forgives the Plough
Author: John Stewart Collis
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 1409088405
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY ROBERT MACFARLANE During the Second World War, John Stewart Collis volunteered to leave his comfortable life as an academic to work on the land for the war effort. His account of this time perfectly captures the soft-handed, city-dweller's naivety and wonder both at the workings of nature and the toughness of life on a farm. It's set in the south of England and comprises exquisitely written sections on whatever happens to take Collis's fancy and inspire his thoughtful curiosity, ranging from humorous sketches of the characters he works alongside; mini-essays such as 'Contemplation upon Ants', The Mystery of Clouds', 'Colloquy on the Rick', 'Meditation while Singling Mangolds', 'The Garden of Eden'; and celebrations of the earthworm, pea and potato. His mind ranges far and wide through literature science and philosophy as well as amazing descriptive writing, which makes for a book that is as uncategorisable as it is enchanting.

The Cut Worm
Author: Douglas Korb
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
Poetry. Two lines from William Blake's "The Marriage of Heaven and Hell" served as inspiration for both the title of THE CUT WORM and the book's division into three sections: 'The cut worm forgives the plow' and 'In seed time learn, inharvest teach, in winter enjoy'. The book explores innocence, experience, and desire. "THE CUT WORM reads like a sensible dream. In it, the poet drifts as son, husband, and amazed poetic citizen. Douglas Korb's world of memory and family and observation is all faintly humorous, faintly rapturous. He answers the world directly with its own details"--Chris Green. "The domicile, the body: these are ever under siege in Douglas Korb's corpus. Nor is there any real sense of escape, only the courage to face unpleasantness while shoring up some humor along the way. The lyric poem, then, as a means to restoring a little peace"--Timothy Liu.
