The close observations and sculpted language of William Wright's poems make the world a holy place. These poems brim with the restless energy of waking that leads us into 'rooms of smoky light that house the myth.' The myth is the beautiful and fragile existence of the creatures in these poems, from the boy who ponders a long-drowned woman to a caterpillar heavy with 'something vital and black.' Wright draws a world that is elemental and spirit drenched, and it is a world I want to live in. --- Al Maginnes

Eleanor of Aquitaine was the only person ever to sit on the thrones of both France and England. In this account of the turbulent adventures of the extraordinary mother of Richard the Lionheart and King John, author Douglas Boyd takes us into the heart and mind of the woman who changed the shape of Europe for 300 years by marrying Henry of Anjou to make him England's Henry II. Brought up in the comfort- and culture-loving Mediterranean civilisation of southern France, she was a European with a continent-wide vision and a peculiarly 'modern' woman who rejected the subordinate female role decreed by the Church. In this biography, using French, Old French, Latin and Occitan sources, Douglas Boyd lays bare Eleanor's relationship and vividly brings her world to life.
Before she wrote her prose masterpieces, Willa Cather produced striking poems, which were collected in 1903 in April Twilights. It was her literary debut, preceding the publication of O Pioneers! by nine years. In her introduction, distinguished Cather scholar Bernice Slote notes that this early edition of April Twilights restores what had been "an almost lost, certainly blurred, portion of the creative life of a great novelist." Among the thirty-seven selections are the much-anthologized "Grandmither, Think Not I Forget," and the highly evocative "Prairie Dawn."
Knowing that their grandkids are trying to pull a fast one on them for April Fools Day, Grandma and Grandpa have to stay one step ahead of the lively bunch at all times to avoid any traps, in an amusing tale about a very silly day. Reprint.
