Softcover/Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. The shift ends. Some things don't clock out.Whispers Behind the Frontline Collection brings together five books of poetry by Brian Edward McDermott, RN, exploring the people beneath the uniforms of nursing, law enforcement, firefighting, psychiatric nursing, and emergency medical services.Across 166 poems and reflective pieces, the collection moves through hospital corridors, police cruisers, firehouses, locked psychiatric units, ambulance cabs, and the homes waiting beyond them. A report is handed over. A radio opens. An empty chair stays empty. Someone sits in the driveway a little longer before going inside.Each of the five books enters a different part of frontline life:Whispers Behind Torn Masks follows nurses through the demands of care, difficult shifts, exhaustion, compassion, and the small moments that help them return.Whispers Behind Tarnished Badges explores the lives of police officers through calls, partners, loss, moral injury, family relationships, and the distance between a public role and a private person.Whispers Behind Scorched Shields enters the firehouse, where training, danger, dark humor, shared meals, grief, and loyalty become part of the same working life.Whispers Behind Locked Doors gives voice to psychiatric nursing and behavioral health care, staying close to staff, patients, and the difficult human encounters on both sides of the door.Whispers Behind Fractured Minutes follows EMTs and paramedics through dispatch tones, roadside scenes, handoffs, waiting rooms, and the calls that remain after the ambulance has been restocked.These poems make room for burnout, grief, traumatic stress, responsibility, tenderness, and the stubborn wish to keep helping. They also recognize the spouses, children, coworkers, patients, and civilians whose lives touch the work. The voices and situations are fictionalized and composite, grounded in the emotional realities of care and public service.Written for frontline professionals, first responders, healthcare workers, their families, and readers of contemporary poetry, this collection offers an honest place to recognize what a shift can ask of a person-and what that person carries home.This anthology edition includes all five collections in one volume, with five color section-opening illustrations and blood-red interior accents.For those who do the work.

Softcover/Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Five books. Five kinds of pressure. The ordinary lives that hold more than anyone sees.Whispers Behind the Opposing Forces Collection brings together 167 poems and reflections from five books in Brian Edward McDermott's Whispers series: Paper Hearts, Weathered Acres, Walled Flowers, Shared Ground, and Holy Days.In Paper Hearts, marriage unfolds through coffee cups, overdue bills, tired hands, empty bedrooms, and the long work of choosing one another. Weathered Acres enters the lives of farm and ranch families, where weather is payroll, chores keep the calendar, and inheritance can be both a gift and a weight.Walled Flowers walks the school hallways behind the labels: the class clown, the quiet student, the athlete, the new kid, and the young person carrying a whole household into class. Shared Ground follows immigrant families through work, language, separation, and belonging, finding a life inside the folder, the recipe, the name, and the kitchen that holds two countries. Holy Days listens to people of different faiths and people without religious belief, exploring what they inherit, what others assume, what hurts, and what remains.Across kitchens, classrooms, fields, waiting rooms, and places of worship, these poems stay close to physical details and particular people. A chair moves over. A neighbor brings food. Someone learns a name instead of accepting the nickname. A hand reaches across the space an argument has left behind.Written in plainspoken verse with tenderness, grief, flashes of humor, and working-class honesty, this collection makes room for experiences that often go unspoken. It is for readers of poetry about marriage and family, rural life, exclusion, cultural identity, belief, and the stubborn effort of beginning again.This collection edition includes shared front and back matter and an illustrated opening for each of its five book sections.Begin with the life you recognize. Stay for the person you have not met yet. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 446.…
