Amy Lowell (1874–1925), American poet and critic, was one of the most influential and best-known writers of her era. Within a thirteen-year period, she produced six volumes of poetry, two volumes of criticism, a two-volume biography of John Keats, and countless articles and reviews that appeared in many popular periodicals. As a herald of the New Poetry, Lowell saw herself and her kind of work as a part of a newly forged, diverse, American people that registered its consciousness in different tonalities but all in a native idiom. She helped build the road leading to the later works of Allen Ginsberg, May Sarton, Sylvia Plath, and beyond. Except for the few poems that invariably appear in American literature anthologies, most of her writings are out of print. This will be the first volume of her work to appear in decades, and the depth, range, and surprising sensuality of her poems will be a revelation.The poetry is organized according to Lowell’s characteristic forms, from traditional to experimental. In each section the works appear in chronological order. Section one contains sonnets and other traditional verse forms. The next section covers her translations and adaptations of Chinese and Japanese poetry, whereby she beautifully renders the spirit of these works. Also included here are several of Lowell’s own Asian-influenced poems. Lowell’s free, or cadenced verse appears in the third part. The last section provides samples of Lowell’s polyphonic prose, an ambitious and vigorous art form that employs all of the resources of poetry.The release of The Selected Poems of Amy Lowell will be a major event for readers who have not been able to find a representative sampling of work from this vigorous, courageous poet who gave voice to an erotic, thoroughly American sensibility.
When Amy Cave was reported missing and later discovered murdered, it was difficult for the police and reporters to keep their emotional distance. The controversial sexuality of the killer and the tragic nature of the story made that impossible. Once the headlines had faded and the legal proceedings were ended, Pat Flagg delved further into the background and the aftermath of the high-profile case. In this book she revisits the investigation, arrest, and trial in fascinating detail.
Meet Amy. As a five-year-old, Amy dashed between parked cars into the street, where she was struck down. The only reason she survived was because a police car was one vehicle back. Rushed to a hospital in minutes, Amy survived--but never to return as the beautiful, smart, active five-year-old she had been.Despite her handicaps, Amy was a loving big sister to her three siblings. She had the time and patience to teach them to color, to read stories to them, and to help them learn to read as they grew older. But, at 17, without warning, Amy died.Who Gets Amy's Room? is about a family learning to live with her passing as narrated by her brother Kit, when he was about eight. You will meet Amy's mother, Jacie, who is still devoted to local public service, and who spoke about her struggles to reach acceptance of her daughter at a conference years later, in a talk entitled "Parenting the Handicapped Child," that is included in the book.
