Synopsis Breaking Free Through Poetry by : Leanna Smith

Before she began writing poetry, author Leanna Smith had no way of getting her emotions out. With the guidance of an inspiring high school teacher, she found a new way of expressing herself. Through the highs and lows of her life, she continued to write, building a collection of verses that serve as a vivid display of sadness and passion. Breaking Free through Poetry presents a compilation of love, loss, tears, happiness, joy, and sadness spanning thirty-one tumultuous years. Every poem she wrote was a lesson that she needed to learn about a situation she had to experience in order to grow. This poetry collection, written over the course of more than thirty years, shares the thoughts, feelings, and stories of one woman’s life. Dreams Die I once dreamed that you and I We’d come together like earth and sky, But as you know dreams, they die Without a doubt without a sigh I wish I was too strong to cry But this dream left tears in my eyes And of course, I’ll still try Because I’ll love her live or die.

Synopsis Divorce Poetry by : Tamara Mendelson

It starts with the breakdown; twenty years together. It ends breaking free, into new life. Poet Tamara Mendelson charts her divorce cycle in Divorce Poetry: Breaking Free, A Soul-Healing Journey Through the Five Stages of Divorce. She shares her raw emotions and bitter truths learned, such as the meaning of "forever". From breaking down to breaking free, each of the five sections includes poetry intended for people going through their own emotional tidal waves. Mendelson never expected to divorce. What was to last forever, lasted seventeen years. Rather than settling for a loveless marriage, she made the decision to leave. Luckily for readers, she reengaged life with poetry as part of her healing process, and has discovered that others have suffered like she did. Here she presents readers with her book of verse, expressing how to be with and endure their pain to find peace. Much light is found at the end of her journey, and with each poem, she helps readers find their own.

Synopsis How to Start Over by : Stuart Kestenbaum

Maine Poet Laureate's new book of poetry includes some experimental poems using source words supplied by others. Some of these poems were made- or sparked- by lists of random words given to the poet. But really nothing is random to an imagination that can see the whole from its scattered parts, see in disparate elements a "full spectrum holiness."

Synopsis Entering Sappho by : Sarah Dowling

An abandoned town named for the classical lesbian leads to questions about history and settlement. Driving along the Pacific Coast Highway, you come to a road sign: Entering Sappho. Nothing remains of the town, just trash at the side of the highway and thick, wet bush. Can Sappho’s breathless eroticism tell us anything about settlement—about why we’re here in front of this sign? Mixing historical documents, oral histories, and experimental translations of the original lesbian poet’s works, this book combines documentary and speculation, surveying a century in reverse. This town is one of many with a classical name. Take it as a symbol: perhaps in a place that no longer exists, another kind of future might be possible.

Synopsis Line Break by : James Scully

Line Break is the major work on poetry as social practice and a must-read for anyone interested in contemporary criticism or poetry. For many years, James Scully, along with others, quietly radicalized American poetry--in theory and in practice, in how it is lived as well as in how it is written. In eight provocative essays, James Scully argues provocatively for artistic and cultural practice that actively opposes structures of power too often reinforced by intellectual activities.

Synopsis The First Free Women by : Matty Weingast

An Ancient Collection Reimagined Composed around the Buddha’s lifetime, the Therigatha (“Verses of the Elder Nuns”) contains the poems of the first Buddhist women: princesses and courtesans, tired wives of arranged marriages and the desperately in love, those born into limitless wealth and those born with nothing at all. The original authors of the Therigatha were women from every kind of background, but they all shared a deep-seated desire for awakening and liberation. In The First Free Women, Matty Weingast has reimagined this ancient collection and created a contemporary and radical adaptation that takes the essence of each poem and highlights the struggles and doubts, as well as the strength, perseverance, and profound compassion, embodied by these courageous women.
