Book Description
Connecticut may be a small state, but it is large indeed in its contribution to the nation's literature. Garnet Poems features forty-two poets whose work has a strong connection to Connecticut. The first major anthology of Connecticut poetry to appear since the mid-nineteenth century, it includes the work of such notable poets as Wallace Stevens, Lydia Sigourney, Mark Van Doren, Richard Wilbur, Susan Howe, and Elizabeth Alexander. Distinguished writer-scholar Dennis Barone has supplemented the poems with an editor's preface, notes that illuminate the poet's (or poem's) relation to the state, and informative biographies. The book also features a foreword by Dick Allen, the current Connecticut state poet laureate.

Book Description
“Marvin Bell has the largest heart since Walt Whitman.”—Harvard Review In a recent interview Marvin Bell said, “I’ve been trying for thirty years to figure out how best to put the news into poems—what other people would call politics. But there are some hairy aesthetic questions connected to overtly political poems.” Mars Being Red is the most political book of Bell’s storied career—and one of his most beautiful. Infuriated by our country’s military aggression and destructive politics, Bell asks, What shall we do, we who are at war but are asked / to pretend we are not? What Bell has done is craft a book of urgency and insight, anger and action: . . . I am, like you, a witness to the coffins that were Viet Nam and Iraq, to a political machine that came up three lemons . . . I am the big ears and the wide eyes to whom time happened. I lived in stormy weather writing songs of love because, tell me if you know, who can help it? Marvin Bell served on the faculty at the Iowa Writers’ Workshop for over thirty years. He is the first and current poet laureate of Iowa.

Book Description
What does "Poems from the Other Side" mean? Something I noticed about me is that I am analytical. I don't just look at issues and problems from on side like most people do. Most people are a bit selfish and only see the side that favors them. They never take the time to look at every side before making a conclusion. I however, look at the left, the right, the bottom, the top, the angles, the front, the back, the east, west, south, north, every side it has I analyze and dissect and research and once I am done, I make a conclusion that usually offends all sides. It's the truth, but not what people want to hear. So, I decided to write poetry, pros, monologues, and other stuff that come from the other side. The side you refuse to look at. The side that you don't even know exists, the side you are too afraid to look at or the side that does not benefit you. I took all the sides and created this work of art for those who are ready to see the other side. So enjoy Poems from the Other Side.

Book Description
In this book colour words as used in the poetry of Keats, Browning and Hopkins become crucial indicators of a way of looking at the nineteenth-century world. The author traces the forging of language that mediates between a system of values and the flux of experience.
