Jim Harrison's popular novels represent only part of his literary output—he has also been widely acclaimed for the "renegade genius" of his powerful expressive verse, collected in several books such as The Theory and Practice of Rivers and Other Poems (Clark City Press, 1989).

Peter Coyote’s first collection of poetry takes us on a whirlwind tour of an eclectic and exciting life as an actor and Zen Buddhist priest, meandering from love affairs to marriage to divorce to the '60s to psychedelic spirituality and beyond.

"Questo presente è come sabbia digitale si dissolve il bene dal male. Regna sovrana la disillusione sonno esteso dell’astratta ragione. Giorni vuoti come specchi sentimenti appena nati e già vecchi. Ho cancellato il file dell’amore nell’oblio del nulla vagheranno le ore.". La sabbia digitale è la nostra società, troppo impegnata negli individualismi, così frenetica da diventare un labirinto di ombre, una dimensione astratta e sconosciuta, messaggera della solitudine che avvolge le persone, ormai assuefatte a una vuota tecnologia che unisce, ma solo all’apparenza.

Although his output was small, John of the Cross (1542 - 1591) is considered one of the most important figures in Spanish poetry.

This selection of 20 poems opens with his most famous poem, "The Obscure Night of the Soul" and concludes with a free translation of "Psalm 137 (By the Waters of Babylon)".

Kendra DeColo reaffirms the action of mothering as heroic, brutal, and hardcore.
