Rust Belt Rising Almanac
Author: Nicolas Esposito
Publisher: Head & the Hand Press
ISBN: 9780989312509
Category : American literature
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Fiction. Poetry. Literary Nonfiction. Art. THE RUST BELT RISING ALMANAC is a collection of snapshots and stories from writers and artists in America's Rust Belt cities, published by The Head & The Hand Press in Philadelphia. In our first volume, you, Courteous Reader, will read about escapes, remains, and models of growth. You'll green your thumb with an industrial soil-strength planting guide, find a road map for wandering, and learn about projects that are working (and people who aren't). Our almanac may not serve as a strictly meteorological or agricultural guide, but we hope it will help to measure the kind of atmospheric pressure felt between jobs, between communities, between the friends who are still here and the ones not so lucky, bound together by a common question: what's next for the Rust Belt? "The volume is at turns cheeky and earnest, with such section titles as 'On Reverse Pioneering,' 'On the Anatomy of Coal-Fired Power Plant,' and 'On the Collective and the Communal.'"--Bonnie Tsui, The Atlantic Cities online magazine

An Almanac for Moderns
Author: Donald Culross Peattie
Publisher: Trinity University Press
ISBN: 1595341579
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
An Almanac for Moderns contains a short essay for each day of the year that contemplates a unique but factual aspect of unbridled nature. According to a review in Nation, this collection of essays manages to “appeal to the ordinary lover of nature . . . but the turn of Peattie’s mind is poetic and speculative.” The New York Times calls this book “a fine and subtle perception . . . rising at times to an intense lyric beauty . . . a book which the reader will deeply treasure, and to which he will repeatedly return.”
