Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. It's been said that any work of fiction is more or less autobiographical because it reveals the shape of the author's mind, his or her attitude towards life and living, his or her prejudices, sense of humor, political leanings, etc. It can, in short, be a revelation of the author's personality. This is as true in a collection of shorter works as it is in a single longer one; the greater variety of situations, characters, points-of-view, and plot lines in a collection of stories gives color to the authorial persona in a manner similar to the larger canvas of the novel. The persona in the case of The Weary Heart is stable, grounded, perhaps even slightly old-fashioned with regard to the approach taken to the tales included. The lead characters are male and female, younger and older, facing a variety of situations, all of which, if not situations we've faced ourselves, are ones that can be easily understood and imagined. Stories take place in suburban/small town settings. The collection's total length is that of a novella; individual stories range from very short to, in a few cases, fairly lengthy. Enjoy.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Free verse, for the most part. Poetry that's organic in inspiration and yet rigorously shaped. For the most part, straightforward, understandable writing. Very few "puzzle" poems that need to be deciphered in order to comprehend their meaning. Themes? Generally, those of modern lyric poetry. Occasionally gay subject matter; in one or two instances, topical. Not didactic. Not humorous except perhaps now and then. Character driven, many of the poems. "Serious poetry for serious minds." Yes. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "To vividly describe everyday life and events, trying to capture the essence of moments" - this is the best description of haiku, at least those that I have written, that I can invent. I've read, with great pleasure and attentiveness, hakuists from the past, and have learned something from them all. Hiroaki Sato is a personal favorite, and the hakuist I've taken most inspiration from. The poems I've collected here are written in free form style, with subjects that are relatively traditional. I tend to think a book like this should read almost like a story - of a life, of a personality. This personality on offer here is, I think, warm, and hopefully interesting enough to engage your attention for the brief time he asks to spend in your company. This item is printed on demand.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'To vividly describe everyday life and events, trying to capture the essence of moments' - this is the best description of haiku that I have ever read, and it's what the poems in this collection strive to do. Written mostly in single-line, free-form style, they are in subject matter, as well as in the psychological disposition of their author, more or less traditional. Given the number and the genius of classic haikuists from the past, it's difficult for any Westerner to feel himself as any more than a student of the form, however eager he may be to please. That said, Hiroaki Sato is my particular personal favorite, and the poet I've taken most inspiration from. With regards to length, the collection can be read in an hour, perhaps less, depending on the amount of attention given individual lines. It's my opinion that the collection reads almost like a story - both of a life and a personality. The personality on offer here is, I hope, quick sighted, warm, and verbally interesting enough to amuse and engage you for the brief time I ask to spend in your company.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A little boy looks at a star and makes a wish. A young woman, newly divorced, confronts an important moment from her past. A man who prefers solitude is forced to entertain an unwanted guest. A pregnant woman stares down at a gravesite and ponders her future. These are a few of the characters and situations you will meet in The Weary Heart, a collection of short stories and sketches centered mostly on small-town life, and written with a sensibility both warm and challenging. Most of the stories presented here are not long, though a few do require an attention span that goes beyond the 5 minute mark. Be forewarned! You may get so lost in the prose that you'll forget the passing of time.…
