Book Description
SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold; mso-bidi-font-style: italic"> “ Felicio Martin’s Eli’s House of Poetry is a work that deserves attention. Martin’s poetry has a sensual innocence, an ardent tenderness which surprises again and again. One feels both flesh and emotion fused into tight lines that sing of youth with aged wisdom. It is upon us to read, ask, and try to meet the author’s hopes.” —Brent Buell, Novelist, Actor, Teacher “A true poet inhabits his or her world. And so it is with Felicio Martin, a young poet with a clear vision of what he wants to say and who is keenly aware of the power of language and the poet’s duty to challenge us with his words and images. There is poignancy in these poems of love, betrayal, loneliness and yearning as well as strength and vulnerability in his passionate need to express himself, in his need to create an interlocutor –us—his public. He invites us to inhabit his world and his home, “Eli’s House of Poetry,” in his moving tribute to the father he never knew.”—Dr. Gloria F. Waldman, Professor, Author

Book Description
The Pinnacle is a very special place for poet John Ellis and his wife, Carolyn. The two have been living in this independent living community in New Braunfels, Texas, and have discovered new adventures and new surprises with their friends and neighbors. Ellis celebrates the vibrancy of the community and the lives of its residents through his work in Poems from the Pinnacle. This new poetry collection, the fifth Ellis has created, includes poems originating in and dedicated to Ellis's treasured home. Through seventy unique pieces of lyricism, Ellis addresses numerous issues. One section warns of the perils of modern technology and society's shifting values. Ellis looks at the recent changes in the world and what they mean for our shared future. One poem focuses on the hypocrisy of a "nonapology" by celebrities and acquaintances alike. Another section describes the challenges and grief diseases like Alzheimer's can bring. Though Ellis explores heavy themes of bereavement and loss, he does not dwell on depression. Instead, sections devoted to the Creator, spirituality, and worship remind you of the beauty and grace in the world. Ellis's work is inspiring and optimistic. Hope, life, and light are found everywhere-especially at the Pinnacle!

Book Description
The author of Infidelities and Bestiary presents a collection poetry about what is hidden in the night. In Elise Paschen’s prize-winning poetry collection, Infidelities, Richard Wilbur wrote that the poems “…draw upon a dream life which can deeply tincture the waking world.” In her third poetry book, The Nightlife, Paschen once again taps into dream states, creating a narrative which balances between the lived and the imagined life. Probing the tension between “The Elevated” and the “Falls,” she explores troubled love and relationships, the danger of accident and emotional volatility. At the heart of the book is a dream triptych which retells the same encounter from different perspectives, the drama between the narrative described and the sexual tension created there. The Nightlife demonstrates Paschen’s versatility and formal mastery as she experiments with forms such as the pantoum, the villanelle and the tritina, as well as concrete poems and poems in free verse. Throughout this poetry collection, she interweaves lyric and narrative threads, creating a contrapuntal story-line. The book begins with a dive into deep water and ends with an opening into sky. “In lean and supple lyrics darted with alarming rhymes and laced with skirmishing patterns, Paschen . . . achieves breathtaking perfection of craft and form. . . . As these poised, elegant, wry, and knowing poems crisply unlock and gracefully unfurl, they reveal fresh perceptions at every turn.” —Booklist “Not only a beautiful and inventive collection, it’s an important contribution to this period in American poetry. . . . This is poetry that reminds us of all the power and possibilities of poetry itself.” —Laura Kasischke, winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award

Book Description
The first collection of poems spanning the beloved Canadian poet's short but dazzling career. Elise Partridge’s poetry has been widely admired for its scrupulous truth to life and meticulous, glittering craft. Whether writing about family and friends, the natural world and the daily round, or serious illness, Partridge was, as Rosanna Warren has said, “a poet of brilliant precisions. Each line represents a new, glinting angle of thought. . . . The result is an art of eerie compassion and an almost hyper-realist perception of the small.” This new collection includes all the poems that Partridge prepared for publication during her lifetime as well as a selection of uncollected or unpublished poems.

Book Description
In his timely YA debut, a best-selling novelist revisits a summer of tumult and truth for a young narrator and his war-torn family. Bicentennial fireworks burn the sky. Bob Seger growls from a transistor radio. And down by the river, girls line up on lawn chairs in pursuit of the perfect tan. Yet for ten-year-old Eli Book, the summer of 1976 is the one that threatened to tear his family apart. There is his distant mother; his traumatized Vietnam vet dad; his wild sister; his former warprotester aunt; and his tough yet troubled best friend, Edie, the only person with whom he can be himself. As tempers flare and his father’s nightmares rage, Eli watches from the sidelines, but soon even he cannot escape the current of conflict. From Silas House comes a tender look at the complexities of childhood and the realities of war -- a quintessentially Southern novel filled with music, nostalgic detail, a deep respect for nature, and a powerful sense of place.
