| Title: Abundant Life |
| Sub-title: New & Selected Poems |
| By (author): Hank Lazer |
| ISBN10-13: 1946104574 : 9781946104571 |
| Portions, spirit, elegy, lyrics, awakenings, sutra, serendipity, loss, mindedness, rebelling, reveling, unraveling, sounderings, melody, offkey, noisily, rhythm, negation, improvisation, abandon, deflection, renewal, cascade, cadence, grace, weaving, enigma, shekinah: a door, a jar. These are a few of his favorite things. â Charles Bernstein Hank Lazerâ s Abundant Life: New and Selected Poems shows how Lazer thinks with and through writing. All of it is literally experimental in that each new project is a challenge he gives himself, a way to experience life differently. Here we have his â shape writingâ but also short, jagged lyrics reminiscent of Creeley, and long narrative poems about losing oneâ s parents. What unites this work is Lazerâ s joint commitment to mindfulness (a quest to find the sacred within the everyday) and to relationality, to dialogue. His books arise and exist in conversation with others: philosophersâ such as Levinas and Merleau-Pontyâ as well as Zen monks, and admired poets including Emily Dickinson and Creeley. This work may be heady, but it is also deeply human. â Rae Armantrout |

| Title: Time, Wisdom, and Koalas |
| By (author): David Miller |
| ISBN10-13: 1946104418 : 9781946104410 |
| â Despite what the first pages may suggest, this is most definitely not a childrenâ s tale.â Or so weâ re told. Itâ s more like what Byron thought about â true poetryâ : that â â tis the part/ Of a true poet to escape from fictionâ . David Miller escapes from fiction in â spirit dreamsâ he learned from a certain Koala named Norman, who seems to have passed them along through a certain wombat named Archie. If I told you any more about Davidâ s escapes youâ d think I was making it up, or maybe that I just dreamed it all. But as David once said â I think he was at Felpham â â you can never tell about these things.â Jerome McGann |
