Paperback. Etat : Good. Praise for Jan Heller Levi: It's Levi's humanity that ultimately won't let you loose, words as direct as bullets, as kisses.--Bob HolmanOrphan, Jan Heller Levi's new collection, is an unabashed confrontation with loneliness, otherness, and abandonment. These poems--ancient, immediate, serene, disgruntled, wickedly humorous, unsettlingly earnest--are also daring explorations of what love is. In the new millennium, with so much loss to mourn--and so much more still to lose--Orphan contemplates how we make our griefs our tools.What Love IsTo forsake all others.To float the beloved on your backfrom flood to land, to wrench breadfrom the beggar's hand, snatchthe oxygen mask from a child's face.To ransack hospitals and nursing homesfor drugs to ease the beloved's pain, to stumble down 101 floors, belovedslung on your back, not stoppingfor the other ones in wheelchairswaiting at the landing doors.Jan Heller Levi's first collection of poems, Once I Gazed at You in Wonder, won the Walt Whitman Award of the Academy of American Poets, and poems from her second collection, Skyspeak, won The Emily Dickinson Award of the Poetry Society of America. She is editor of A Muriel Rukeyser Reader, served as consulting editor for the new edition of The Collected Poems of Muriel Rukeyser, and is currently writing the biography of Rukeyser. She lives in New York City with her husband, the Swiss novelist and playwright Christoph Keller, and teaches at Hunter College. …

Paperback. Etat : Good. Angel Bones has an introspective voice that maintains a bright understanding of the temporal. As we read, we are painfully aware the speaker is dying from cancer and death is imminent. The attempt to not only explain, but understand how to welcome and embrace death is a bittersweet calm.

Paperback. Etat : Fair. Haunting, alarming, transformative, and elusive, these poems bridge together the gaps between development stages: from girl, to woman, and then mother. With the complexities that intertwine them, can you be all three at once? Who shapes our identity, and who is in control here? How do we recognize, acknowledge, and honor the changing of who we are.…

I said let's go through an exercise.Someone is sleeping very peacefully in a bed next to you. Who is this person?A sculptor (from LA he said just visiting) listened to us. He said I'm working on a 50 ft. bamboo thing. He said you should come by.Early in Sarah Gambito's book, we learn that 'You cannot be in two places at once.'
