Book Description
In his newest and most chilling dystopia, W.E. Gutman takes fellow insomniacs on a dark, eerie journey into a netherworld of visions that skirt the nightmarish regions of insanity. Written for the stage and screen, ONE LAST DREAM asks disquieting questions: Do the dreams we spin, the thoughts we ponder betray us? Can our musings be censored? Will the neurons in our brains be rewired to turn us into servile conformists? Is the clash of dreams the real cause of mankind's afflictions? If neuroscientists succeed, there will soon be a way to access and decipher the brain's most quirky constructs.

Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
Since discovering my passion for writing lyrics during adolescence, I have tried to develop my own style - somewhere anchored in traditional, but also powered by the emotional complexity of living in the modern society. Therefore, in my struggle to achieve the ultimate wisdom of the words, I write imperfect poetry that seems to be a bit too complex and somewhat out of reach at the first glance. However, a careful and persistent reading will lead the reader to unveiling emotions and thoughts that are common and simple, yet deep and intriguing. Most of my poems are rhymed and fall under the traditional lyric genre, expressing some personal, as well as various role-playing perspectives, in a rather philosophical and often abstract manner.

Last Dream

Pages : 142
Book Description
Poetry. Italian Studies. Translated by Geoffrey Brock. An essential new translation of one of Italian literature's most celebrated poets. Giovanni Pascoli stands as a towering figure at the threshold of modern Italian poetry, yet he is little known in English. He wrote his best poems in the last decade of the nineteenth century and the first few years of the twentieth, in an extraordinary burst that included his three most important collections, Myricae, Canti di Castelvecchio, and Primi poemetti. In this volume, translator Geoffrey Brock offers a personal anthology that conveys the wide-eyed spirit and formal beauty of the originals. "This collection is a revelation. In Geoffrey Brock's impeccable versions, Pascoli becomes a poet who demands to be read out loud. Time and again I found myself stopping to savor a phrase, a line break, a rhyme, a stanza. And then reading the poem over from the start. 'The Sleep of Odysseus' is heart-stopping. It's difficult to overstate my admiration for that tact, grace, and formal imagination that shape these remarkable translations."--Clare Cavanagh "A champion of childlike intuition, muted tones, and 'small things,' Pascoli has until now been confined to his corner of the map. In this personal anthology, poet and translator Geoff Brock conveys to us the best of Pascoli. His Pascoli is the author of subtle, bewitching poems that look both inward and outward, celebrating the natural world and the inner life of humble objects: kites, walking sticks, the little nests of spring. Brock has kept the rhymes and meters, and his deeply intelligent remakings breathe new life into the old idiom."--Will Schutt
