Book Description
The great American poet’s essential collection spanning fifty years of verse—with an introduction by Mark Van Doren. With major contributions in the realms of journalism, biography and children’s fiction, Carl Sandburg was a luminary of twentieth-century American literature. But he was first a foremost a poet who transformed the diversity of his experience into powerfully vivid and beloved verse. His many collections won numerous accolades, including two Pulitzer Prizes. This selection of Sandburg’s poems is culled from half a century of output and includes thirteen poems appearing in book form for the first time. As this collection so masterfully demonstrates, “[Sandburg’s poetry] is independent, honest, direct, lyric, and it endures, clamorous and muted, magical as life itself” (New York Times).

In the Face of Fear
Author: Walter G. Moss
Publisher: Wood Lake Publishing Inc.
ISBN: 1773431722
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 53
Book Description
In today’s click-happy world, humour all too often strikes at the heart of the other. It’s about laughing at another’s expense, guffawing in superiority, and generally casting our eye on other people’s failings. Walter G. Moss reminds us that this social habit is a long way from what humour once was – a method to maintain perspective, and to look at the world in such a way that we can overcome whatever hits us. Life can be funny – not just other people’s lives, but our own lives. Moss says this very ability is a sign of both maturity and of wisdom. When we laugh at ourselves, all the world can laugh with us.
