A collection of poetry and spoken word by Frank Rafferty.

Rafferty's Rules

A Poetry Collection

Radiant poems from the bestselling author of Memphis

Magic Enuff

How should we raise our children in, and for, a world that is burning? Rachel Richardson's third collection, Smother, interrogates this impossible question. The poet, raising young daughters and grieving the death of a mother friend, documents a string of record-breaking fires across the California landscape and the rage, sorrow, and detachment that follow amidst the pervasive smoke. Environmental and physical predation-on the earth and on the female body-weave through the book in layers.
But these are not poems of giving up. The poems in Smother gather accomplices in grief and mothering, seek out guides and girlfriends, remember the dead, keep watch at the firebreaks, and plant new trees on the burn scars. From lyric forms to moments of prose and documentary collage, these poems sing their song of resistance made from the music that is available to us now.
"Within that vast
triangle, land that appears
to be hanging only by a flimsy hinge
to the continent, the burn scars
having leveled the grasses, having pushed
the elk elsewhere up the ragged edge
for reeds, the hearts of some downed trees
still smolder. This is what I go for. To walk inside it,
to know what remains of the kingdom."
-from "The Map Is Not The Territory"

Collected Poems

This gorgeously illustrated collection of poems illuminates and reimagines the ingenious, fragile dwellings of the living creatures around us. Poet Laureate Simon Armitage was inspired to write these poems by the Lost Gardens of Heligan in Cornwall, an ambitious restoration project where history and mystery combine.

Kontext

Absence in Sculpture. Placebo - A Landscape is a tribute to the artist Félix González-Torres, who died at a tragically young age. "Untitled" (Placebo - Landscape - for Roni) (1993) was created in a dialogue between González-Torres and Roni Horn, who found formal inspiration in each other's works and addressed similar themes. Heike-Karin Föll describes and reconstructs the formal characteristics of the candies and their implications in terms of the aesthetics of production and reception in light of the artistic-aesthetic and political debates during the AIDS crisis of the early 1990s. Föll's art communicates with contemporary media, styles, analog and digital displays, and writings. Her work scrutinizes painting and drawing, exposing the line as their smallest unit, and translates her findings into a variety of formats-book page, sheet, and canvas-in which she deconstructs postmodern stratagems such as appropriation, quotation, and copy.

Placebo – Landscape

A preeminent voice in contemporary literature, Major Jackson offers steady miracles of vision and celebrations of language in rapturous, sophisticated poems. Razzle Dazzle traces the evolution of Jackson's transformative imagination and fierce music through five acclaimed volumes: his Cave Canem Poetry Prize-winning debut, Leaving Saturn (2002), which captures the spirit of resilience in the Philadelphia neighborhoods of the poet's youth; Hoops (2006), which finds transcendence in the solemn marvels of ordinary lives; Holding Company (2010), which shifts away from narrative to explore the seductive force of art, literature, and music; Roll Deep (2015), which addresses human intimacy, war, and the spirit of aesthetic travel; and his vulnerable, philosophical latest, The Absurd Man (2020). The volume opens with over three dozen new poems that erupt into full-throated song in the face of indignity and invite us into a passionate experience of the world.
Taken together, these two decades of writing offer a sustained portrait of a poet "bound up in the ecstatic," whose buoyant lyricism confronts the social and political forces that would demean humanity. Equally attuned to sensuous connection, metaphysical inquiries, the natural world, and ever-changing urban landscapes, Jackson possesses a sensibility at once global and personal, driven by an enduring conviction in the possibilities of art and language to mark our lives with meaning.
Whether addressing racial conflict and the ongoing struggle for human dignity in America, bearing witness to the plight of refugees, or grieving the contradictory nature of humankind, these dexterous poems proclaim the remarkable power of renewal, justice, and accountability.

"This book presents a range of global, practice-based, case studies that conceptualise community formation in times of social and political turbulence as a process that emerges through local political activism and resistance. A truly interdisciplinary work at the intersection of visual culture, the built environment and poetics, it explores these individual acts of resistance and argues for a necessary inter-relation between politics, ethics and aesthetics. In doing so, it sets out to conceive a new poetics of 'us' and demonstrate how the formation of community in and through resistance, on a planetary scale, has the potential to introduce new models of social and cultural interaction"--

What does it mean to be governed and what does it mean to resist? Examining how communities form amidst social and political turbulence, this open access book presents four case studies that demonstrate the power of organic social formations over imposed order. Understanding this formation of community in terms of ‘ungovernability’ and a ‘poetics of resistance’, Ungovernable Spaces charts a movement from oppression, through transformation, into imagining, and finally emergence. Throughout the book, the authors engage methods of situated practice and related modes of writing and image-making to consider a range of global case studies: the destruction of the Mecca apartment building in Chicago’s South Side in 1952, following a decade of resistance from the building’s predominantly African American occupants; M.K. Gandhi’s practices of social activism including the Salt March protest of 1930, and the daily practice of spinning and intermittent fasts; the Ciudad Abierta (Open City), a radical pedagogical experiment started by a poet and an architect in Valparaíso, Chile in 1970; and, finally, the urban ecologies developing on either side of Belfast's ‘peace walls’ in the wake of the Troubles and 1998's Good Friday Agreement. Structured via four spatial configurations – the grid, the charkha, the constellation, and the cluster –each case study explores community formation through artistic and aesthetic practices that resist and unsettle forms of hegemonic order. A truly interdisciplinary work at the intersection of poetry, art and spatial practice, Ungovernable Spaces argues for the importance of ethics, aesthetics, imagination and ecology in developing, of necessity, a new poetics of ‘us.’ In doing so, it demonstrates how the formation of community in and through resistance has the potential to introduce new models of social and cultural interaction that make something new, something different, something unknown of the world.

'More than any other poet since Wordsworth he can make us understand that the outside world is not outside, but what we are made of.' John CareyOriginally published in 1969, Seamus Heaney's second collection, Door into the Dark, pushes further into territory so startlingly opened up in Death of a Naturalist (1966).

Door into the Dark

Booker prize winning author Michael Ondaatje invites you on a brutal, beautiful journey into the American West. . . At twenty-one years old, Billy the Kid has killed a man for each year he's been alive. Roaming the blasted planes of the Wild West, he moves between friends, foes and lovers, fighting to keep just one step ahead of the law. Yet in this twisted wasteland - a country of mad dogs and bullet-bloodied horses, of sweat and gore and blinding heat - the sheriffs play dirty too. Melding prose, poetry, imagined interviews and ephemeral photography, Ondaatje weaves together a lyrical reinterpretation of Billy's short, infamous existence, forming a portrait of a young man, and a young country, borne out of violence, threaded through with disaster, yet rich in wonder. 'Ondaatje's language is clean and energetic, with the pop of bullets. This is literature, art.' Annie Dillard'Ondaatje's eye for detail is wonderful and he uses it poetically, with superb restraint' Larry McMurtry

By the age of twenty-one, Billy the Kid had killed a man for each year he’d been alive. Then he was shot dead in the night by a man he once called a friend. Drawing on contemporary accounts, period photographs, dime novels, and his own prodigious fund of empathy and imagination, Michael Ondaatje's visionary novel traces the legendary outlaw's passage across the blasted landscape of 1880 New Mexico and the collective unconscious of his country. The Collected Works of Billy the Kid is a virtuoso synthesis of storytelling, history, and myth by a writer who brings us back to our familiar legends with a renewed sense of wonder.

Routledge Research on Taiwan Series

The rise of China has contributed to the shrinking of international space for Taiwan and Taiwanese cultures are often seen as tributaries of China. This volume explores how Taiwanese poets conceptualize their identities, manipulating multiple voices to overcome political hegemony and re-evaluate both Taiwan's colonial legacy and its nationalism.
