Book Description
I (sincerely yours) have learned in life that with great discomfort and misunderstanding comes great change. With this change, everyone tries to be as politically correct as possible, but they neglect to truly understand or embrace the evolution and passion of humanity and the human consciousness. Through great meditation, I came up with the title Poetically Correct because it fully describes the nature of thought and evolution of humanity. These poems are the embodiment of that. With all power to God, the universal energy or greater power, I intend to express the best way I can the conscious thought that has been given to me throughout my life. Under the United States First Amendment, I exclusively exercise my rights to freedom of speech. These are the thoughts, views, and internal consciousness of sincerely yours.

Book Description
Her work began at the age of fourteen and has been chronologically documented by date keeping up with current events both personally and globally. This autobiographical collection was compiled into a self-published book covering the years of 1977-2003 entitled: A Part of Me For that Part of You. Now comes the following eight years during which swift changes have occurred for Ms. Louise personally and politically. This new title, Poetically Correct: Banned by The Free Press, was assumed, due to an encounter with a newspaper, after many years of publishing her work with them, in which they claimed that 'freedom of the press' had only to do with... the freedom of publishers to pick and choose what they would and wouldn't print. This author felt perplexed because her words are not of slander or threat. Her poem, "Sunday Hypocrite" was the first to be rejected as not fit for the public in "their" opinion.

Book Description
"The day will come when not only my writings, but precisely my life--the intriguing secret of all the machinery--will be studied and studied." Søren Kierkegaard's remarkable combination of genius and peculiarity made this a fair if arrogant prediction. But Kierkegaard's life has been notoriously hard to study, so complex was the web of fact and fiction in his work. Joakim Garff's biography of Kierkegaard is thus a landmark achievement. A seamless blend of history, philosophy, and psychological insight, all conveyed with novelistic verve, this is the most comprehensive and penetrating account yet written of the life and works of the enigmatic Dane who changed the course of intellectual history. Garff portrays Kierkegaard not as the all-controlling impresario behind some of the most important works of modern philosophy and religious thought--books credited with founding existentialism and prefiguring postmodernism--but rather as a man whose writings came to control him. Kierkegaard saw himself as a vessel for his writings, a tool in the hand of God, and eventually as a martyr singled out to call for the end of "Christendom." Garff explores the events and relationships that formed Kierkegaard, including his guilt-ridden relationship with his father, his rivalry with his brother, and his famously tortured relationship with his fiancée Regine Olsen. He recreates the squalor and splendor of Golden Age Copenhagen and the intellectual milieu in which Kierkegaard found himself increasingly embattled and mercilessly caricatured. Acclaimed as a major cultural event on its publication in Denmark in 2000, this book, here presented in an exceptionally crisp and elegant translation, will be the definitive account of Kierkegaard's life for years to come.
