＜p＞This book was not written in a rush.＜/p＞ ＜p＞It came together slowly, like tea steeped too long in a chipped cup.＜br /＞ Each story arrived the way monsoon enters a forgotten city ー not all at once, but in reluctant winds, in cracked windowpanes, in damp smells that cling to bedsheets and memory.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The characters here do not shout.＜br /＞ They are not heroic in the grand sense.＜br /＞ They fold sarees, overcook rice, water plants no one sees growing. They lose words in half-finished conversations and spend lifetimes waiting at closed doors.＜/p＞ ＜p＞But I believe they live deeply.＜br /＞ Inwardly.＜br /＞ With a ferocity that is invisible, like steam rising from a teacup ー soft, persistent, and often unnoticed.＜/p＞ ＜p＞These stories are a tribute to that kind of life. The kind that doesn't chase storms but quietly ＜strong＞absorbs the rain＜/strong＞.＜/p＞ ＜p＞If the pages feel slow, it is because they mirror the rhythm of old houses, long afternoons, and the sound of a ceiling fan that knows more than the people below it.＜/p＞ ＜p＞And if you pause between sentences,＜br /＞ that is enough.＜br /＞ Some stories don't want to be read ー they want to be ＜strong＞felt.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞ー ＜em＞Fazal Abubakkar Esaf＜/em＞＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞August Veriden, Trainer und Filmemacher, ist weg. Abgetaucht, weil ein Einbruch auf sein Konto geht? Oder ist diese Behauptung rassistische Willk?r? V. I.

Wo immer Vic gr?bt, f?rdert sie Unrat zutage, aber nichts davon f?hrt sie zu dem, was sie sucht. Dann tauchen die Leichen auf ... Ein grandioses Buch, das ohne Pause verschlungen geh?rt.≪ The Globe and Mail＜/p＞ ＜p＞Sara Paretsky, 1947 in Kansas geboren, ist eine der renommiertesten Krimiautorinnen weltweit.

＜p＞＜em＞Mudman＜/em＞, a special honoree for the 2023 Able Muse Book Award, is the second full-length poetry collection by Jane McKinley. The poems interweave personal memory with historical and natural landscapes, moving between experiences of family, grief, and illness and broader meditations on war, ecology, and cultural inheritance. Drawing on images of music, myth, and daily life, McKinley examines how private stories intersect with collective histories, and she reflects on the persistence of memory and art as means of understanding loss, continuity, and resilience.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞PRAISE FOR ＜em＞MUDMAN＜/em＞:＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Jane McKinley’s beautiful collection of poems is striking for her observations of natural things which are so close, so true, as to reveal, paradoxically, what it is to be human. At times the things she sees lead her to great music and art, as when she finds in a bird’s feather “the unearthly blue / Fra Angelico used / for angels who witness / the Virgin ascending.” The high point of this collection, though, is when she writes vividly of her father, who fought in World War II. Here she shows us the price of war and the absurdity of it. These poems are intense, authentic, and hard-won.＜/p＞ ＜p＞ー Grace Schulman, author of ＜em＞Again, the Dawn: New and Selected Poems＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞I’m always delighted to learn a new word from poetry, and in “marcescent”ーas when leaves wither yet cling to the boughーJane McKinley has found a figure for elegy: “No time to prepare / for the loss so the dead keep rattling on.” McKinley’s heartbreaking poems are haunted by the ghosts of family and friends who have gone on before her, often much too soon. At the center of ＜em＞Mudman＜/em＞ are poemsーsome “found” in lettersーabout McKinley’s father, a World War II veteran whose death continues to possess the poet’s psyche. Her many deft descriptions of nature dovetail with such losses, presenting a world in which elegy and legacy combine. A bracing, affecting collection.＜/p＞ ＜p＞ー David Yezzi, author of ＜em＞More Things in Heaven: New and Selected Poems＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Jane McKinley’s ＜em＞Mudman＜/em＞ has the kind of magnitude that recalls Robert Lowell’s ＜em＞Life Studies＜/em＞ and Amy Clampitt’s ＜em＞The Kingfisher＜/em＞. I mean that McKinley achieves tremendous narrative breadth even as she reveals a lyric focus so fine that her poems incandesce. Whether mourning the loss of family and friends, attending to the natural world, or chronicling her father’s service in North Africa and Italy during the Second World War, McKinley allows her subjects to break through the page, displaying their unique particularity, even as she makes her own vital sense in exquisite sentences and lines. To read these poems is to feel, as the poet writes of a hummingbird’s song, “something shifted to fullness.” Contemporary American poetry has more depth, and indeed more song, thanks to these superb poems. ＜em＞Mudman＜/em＞ will be with us for a long time to come.＜/p＞ ＜p＞ー Peter Campion, author of ＜em＞One Summer Evening at the Falls＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞ABOUT THE AUTHOR:＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Jane McKinley is a Baroque oboist who founded the Dryden Ensemble and served as its artistic director for nearly thirty years. She holds a Bachelor of Music degree from Northwestern University and an MFA in historical musicology from Princeton University.

Her poems have appeared in the ＜em＞Georgia Review＜/em＞, the ＜em＞Southern Review, Five Points, Baltimore Review, Great River Review, Tar River Poetry, 2River View, ONE ART, Poetry Daily＜/em＞, and elsewhere.
