Lively Literati 5-25-17

Posted by Wayne G. Barber Photos by Wayne G. Barber

Tide Roaring In is a moving work of conscience and connection, coolly reminding us of the humanity we aspire to and the fragile animals we are. In poems of protection and exposure, reasonable fears and unreasonable events, Bourne is clear-eyed but never jaded as she unravels the past into the present, sorting loves and losses like buttons. Amid dreamy landscapes of the northeast and suppers on the porch, the poet wonders “how to rearrange all that had not gone well” and reflects on the grace that anchors us even in the most difficult moments—perhaps especially the difficult ones. Like the tree offering sweet rest to a passing eagle in the opening poem, Bourne’s vivid second collection has both roots and wings.
—Paula Champa, Author of The Afterlife of Emerson Tang

What I am reading now...

Posted by Wayne G. Barber

From sports to politics, food to finance, aviation to engineering, to bitter disputes over simple boundaries themselves, New England’s feuds have peppered the region’s life for centuries. They’ve been raw and rowdy, sometimes high minded and humorous, and in a place renowned for its deep sense of history, often long-running and legendary. There are even some that will undoubtedly outlast the region’s ancient low stone walls.

Ted Reinstein, a native New Englander and local writer, offers us fascinating stories, some known, others not so much, from the history of New England in this fun, accessible book. Bringing to life many of the fights, spats, and arguments that have, in many ways, shaped the area itself, Reinstein demonstrates what it really means to be Wicked Pissed.

I drove one of my sons to the doctors yesterday and started reading this book. My son tapped on the window for me to open the door and I had consumed the first 95 pages of this can't put me down book. Should be a outstanding interview on the Authors Hour on Tuesday May 16th at 9:05am !

Don't you just love a good book ?
