Just like it takes a village to raise a child, it takes an anthology as good as Only the Sea Keeps to bring the tsunami tragedy back into our hearts.

And we don't have to do it alone. We're in the company of poets who haven't stopped caring.'-Hal Sirowitz, former Poet Laureate of Queens, New YorkIn a tremendous effort to come to terms with a natural disaster that took the life and livelihood of millions, and affected the whole world, this is a deeply moving collection of poems by a distinguished group of poets from across the world. Encompassing themes of grief, shock, disbelief and the painful process of healing, Only the Sea Keeps is a beautiful example of the ability of art to address tragedy.The proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the international relief organisations working with tsunami victims/survivors.

The Political Speechwriter's Companion

Publisher: CQ Press
ISBN: 1506387756
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 537
Book Description
The Political Speechwriter's Companion: A Guide for Writers and Speakers guides students through a systematic “LAWS” approach (language, anecdote, wit, and support) that politicians can use to persuade their audiences into taking action. In the highly anticipated Second Edition, esteemed speechwriter and author Robert A. Lehrman has teamed up with one of the "go-to-guys" for political humor, Eric Schnure, to offer students an entertaining yet practical introduction to political speechwriting. This how-to guide explains how speakers can deliver: language the audience will understand and remember; anecdotes that make listeners laugh and cry; wit that pokes fun at opponents but also shows their own lighter side; and support in the way of statistics, examples, and testimony. Packed with annotated speeches from the most recent elections, technology tips, and interviews from speechwriting luminaries, this edition offers the most practical advice and strategies for a career in political communication.
