Back There in the Grass

Back There in the Grass

Irwin S Cobb; Gouverneur Morris

Hippocampus Press
2020
pokkari
This volume contains the weird stories of two leading American short story writers of the early 20th century, Irvin S. Cobb (1876-1944) and Gouverneur Morris (1876-1953). Both are known for a single weird tale, "Fishhead" and "Back There in the Grass," respectively; but both produced several additional weird specimens in their variegated short story collections, ranging from grim tales of psychological suspense ("The Gallowsmith") to tales of Nietzschean supermen ("The Bride's Dead"). This volume constitutes the first time that their weird work has been collected. The Classics of Gothic Horror series seeks to reprint novels and stories from the leading writers of weird fiction over the past two centuries or more. Ever since the Gothic novels of the late 18th century, weird fiction has been a slender but provocative contribution to weird fiction. Edgar Allan Poe, Ambrose Bierce, the Victorian ghost story writers, the "titans" of the early twentieth century (Arthur Machen, Algernon Blackwood, Lord Dunsany, M. R. James, H. P. Lovecraft), the Weird Tales writers, and many others contributed to the development and enrichment of weird fiction as a literary genre, and their work deserves to be enshrined in comprehensive, textually accurate editions.

Find out how two middle-aged career changers with five college degrees grow to meet the challenges of sustainably farming what was once a 19th century dairy about an hour from Philadelphia. Time spent sharing the Yellow Springs Farm story offers a humorous respite for wannabe farmers rushing to keep pace in corporate cubicles, car pools, and Cyberspace. Follow the planning and restoration of the farm landscape and its buildings. Meet the growing four-legged family members, and all the plants, animals, and other creatures that call Yellow Springs Farm home. Join the Renzis' on cheese journeys as they explore goat dairies in Italy, Portugal, Uruguay, and beyond, always seeking inspiration in pursuit of making the very finest artisanal goat cheeses. The book is a spirited memoir highlighting a love for food, together with passions for land and community. Prior to establishing Yellow Springs Farm in 2000 in Chester Springs, PA, Catherine and Al Renzi had corporate business careers. During 20 years of farming, the Renzis operated a native plants nursery, bred Nubian goats, and created dozens of fresh and aged goat cheese varieties. Many cheeses incorporated plants from the farm, and were American Cheese Society award-winners. The cheeses enjoyed distribution with Whole Foods Markets, specialty stores, and fine restaurants.

Let Them Eat Grass is a historical fiction concerning the tragedy of the Sioux Indians trying to save their land as well as the lives of their people. In 1858, Tianci, a Hunkpapa Sioux, participated in the annual dance-in-the-sun ceremony. In the vision he had, he saw a white buffalo that beckoned Tianci to follow him to the East where many White people had settled. Tianci travels to Chief Little Crow's village in Minnesota where the situation between the Whites and the Indians is very fragile. Little Crow and his tribal members teach Tianci to speak the English language. Tianci marries Tacincadan, and they have a daughter, Kimama. Tianci is hired by Colonels Sibley and Barrett to be a guide. Visiting the Indian Agency, Tianci notices the corruption of the White agents selling the Indians' food to other Whites. He warns the colonels about the situation that could lead to warfare. When Little Crow visits the Indian Agency and asks for the food promised to the Indians because of the land the Whites had claimed, Little Crow is told that there is no food for the Indians. When Little Crow asks what he should feed his people, Andrew Myrick mocks him, saying, "Let them eat grass or dung for all I care." Warfare ensues. When soldiers under Colonel Barrett's command accidentally kill Tacincadan and Kimama, Tianci desires to take revenge on Colonel Barrett. He captures Colonel Barrett's two daughters as well as two soldiers. He releases the two soldiers and the older sister but keeps Charissa, claiming she will become his wife. Then he takes Charissa to Little Crow's village. Much more unexpected drama follows. Let Them Eat Grass is based on historical research though some of the characters are fictional. Read this book to find out what happens to the main characters and to better understand the plight of not only the Sioux but most Native Americans in the treatment they received from the Whites.

The well-carpentered, keenly-observed poems in Christophersen's Its Shadow Rakes the Grass describe the beauties and disappointments of urban living, the heart-stopping, day-to-day challenge of caring for an ill parent, and insights drawn from nature and the news. These subjects are conveyed in highly accomplished sonnets and haiku, or in the voices of spicy characters you won't meet in Manhattan conference rooms. You are in the hands of a master craftsman here; these poems will crack your shell.-Bruce E. Whitacre, author of The Elk in the GladeThe title of this stunning collection by Bill Christophersen is taken from the last sentence of the last poem, "Shadow." By the time you have read it, you will have traveled through every possible exploration of what "shadow" means. Many of these poems feature unforgettable, dangerous encounters that will leave your consciousness altered.-Helen Engelhardt, author of The Longest Night/A Personal History of Pan Am 103A key sequence in Its Shadow Rakes the Grass speaks to a time in our lives that we dread to face: taking care of a loved one who has changed into a person we might not always recognize. These poems display a meeting of intellect, heart and heartbreak. Only an adroit poet can turn "IV trees, their crimson fruit in bloom" into something beautiful. This book addresses the human condition in poems we can't help but cleave to.-Jennifer Juneau, author of More Than Moon

"If you've ever wondered how a messed up kid like you or me might master the wisdom of Zen, One Blade of Grass is the adventure for you. It's great company--and after reading it, you might recognize that you're further along than you imagined." --David Hinton, editor and translator of The Four Chinese Classics and author of The Wilds of Poetry One Blade of Grass tells the story of how meditation practice helped Henry Shukman to recover from the depression, anxiety, and chronic eczema he had had since childhood and to integrate a sudden spiritual awakening into his life. By turns humorous and moving, this beautifully written memoir demystifies Zen training, casting its profound insights in simple, lucid language, and takes the reader on a journey of their own, into the hidden treasures of life that contemplative practice can reveal to any of us. "This heartfelt and beautifully written memoir provides one of the most insightful, informative, and honest accounts of Zen practice yet to appear in English." --Stephen Batchelor, author of After Buddhism
Tree Spirits Grass Spirits

Tree Spirits Grass Spirits

Hiromi Ito

Nightboat Books
2023
pokkari
A collected series of intertwined poetic essays written by acclaimed Japanese poet Hiromi Ito—part nature writing, part travelogue, part existential philosophy. Written between April 2012 and November 2013, Tree Spirits Grass Spirits adopts a non-linear narrative flow that mimics the growth of plants, and can be read as a companion piece to Ito’s beloved poem "Wild Grass on the Riverbank". Rather than the vertiginously violent poetics of the latter, Tree Spirits Grass Spirits serves as what we might call a phyto-autobiography: a recounting of one’s life through the logic of flora. Ito’s graciously potent and philosophical prose examines immigration, language, gender, care work, and death, all through her close (indeed, at times obsessive) attention to plant life.
