The Monkey And The Wrench: Essays Into Contemporary Poetics, Mary Biddinger, John Gallaher

University of Akron Press Publications

The first volume in the "Akron Series in Contemporary Poetics," The Monkey & the Wrench, explores the debate over hybrid aesthetics, confronts the topic of contemporary rhyme, and ventures into the realm of persona and the mystical poem. This volume is ideal for both the classroom and the nightstand, for the poet's desk and the critic's bookshelf. Series editors Mary Biddinger and John Gallaher have assembled an eclectic collection that welcomes the reader into the conversation, while documenting the seismic activity of today's poetry world.


Le Spleen De Poughkeepsie, Joshua Harmon 2011 The University of Akron

Le Spleen De Poughkeepsie, Joshua Harmon

University of Akron Press Publications

Winner of the 2010 Akron Poetry Prize, Le Spleen de Poughkeepsie is "a tender anti-epic, a grunge-tinged love song to America's benighted post-industrial heartland." Harmon's Poughkeepsie shimmers just beyond the borders of banal recognition. "If you're not part of the problem, / you're part of the lengthening / tragedy," Harmon writes in an introductory pastoral, seeking out "the stray / detours and workarounds of the secret / city inside the more obvious one...on the outskirts of the absurd / attention to the material life." Poughkeepsie is that city of the heart where no one can look at anyone else "alone," …

Skunk River Review

Welcome to the 2010-2011 edition of The Skunk River Review!

As the new editor of this publication, I was excited to see the number of submissions and the overwhelming enthusiasm of the students. This year's publication includes work from Composition I, Composition II, Literature, and College Resources courses.

Whereas The Skunk River Review is academic work that begins in the classroom, it also reflects student's interests. The essays are not edited for MLA format or general errors because the publication is used as a teaching tool in many classrooms.

Two Weeks Notice...Aloha, John L. Bove 2011 St. Francis College

Two Weeks Notice...Aloha, John L. Bove

Books

Written and published by John L. Bove, former Dean of Admissions for St. Francis College, Two Weeks Notice...Aloha documents his struggle to come to terms with his loss following the death of his wife. From its preface:

“This was originally a journal through which I sought to regain some equilibrium and understanding. The loss of Fran turned my world “topsy turvy.” I was so angry and grief stricken it threatened my health. Stress of any kind, left unchecked, attacks the immune system which inevitably leads to illness.

Writing gives you a focal point for your anger and grief. Introspective …

Distance, Jonathan Evans Kosik 2011 University of Central Florida

Distance, Jonathan Evans Kosik

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Distance is a collection of short fiction that explores the spaces between us. Sometimes it‟s emotional, sometimes it‟s physical; it lies before us like a cross-country journey, dragging us through emotional terrain fraught with countless dangers and rare rewards. A convict returns to his childhood home. A lonely man documents the unexpected damage of an oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. A teenager learns that some boots are not made for walking. These stories are the long and short of it. They examine the way we struggle to understand love, lust, disappointment and the kind of detachment that can …

Life Writing And Mennonite Identity - Review: Essay Of Mennonite Women's Memoirs, Melanie Springer Mock 2011 George Fox University

Life Writing And Mennonite Identity - Review: Essay Of Mennonite Women's Memoirs, Melanie Springer Mock

Faculty Publications - Department of English

Excerpt: "Rhoda Janzen’s recent success is enviable, her hefty book deal with a prominent press and the publicity that followed her first memoir the kind of triumphs to which writers often aspire. Her book Mennonite in a Little Black Dress has – in its own way – brought Mennonitism to the mainstream, introducing readers (and plenty of them) to a religious sect that remains, to many, enigmatic and exotic. The book’s title alone is alluring, juxtaposing the long-held stereotypes about cape-dress-wearing and be-capped Mennonites with the startling image of a skimpy black shift, a modern emblem of sexy fashion: and …


Mild To Moderately Severe, J D. Valencia 2011 University of Central Florida

Mild To Moderately Severe, J D. Valencia

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Mild to Moderately Severe is an episodic memoir of a boy coming of age as a latch-key kid, living with a working single mother and partly raising himself, as a hearing impaired and depressed young adult, learning to navigate the culture with a strategy of faking it, as a nomad with seven mailing addresses before turning ten. It is an examination of accidental and cultivated loneliness, a narrative of a boy and later a man who is too adept at adapting to different environments, a reflection on relationships and popularity and a need for attention and love that clashes with …
