The Happiness Myth: Why What We Think Is Right Is Wrong
Engaging history of cultural and philosophical prescriptions for a happy life, which have differed widely from one era to the next. Hecht suggests that historical perspective itself brings happiness by giving us self-awareness and the ability to try new options outside our culture's standards of value. The wit and geniality she displayed in her prizewinning poetry collection The Next Ancient World lend credibility to her advice on the good life (or rather, lives).
The Hard Season
By Kathleen Lynch
Rain-glutted, the stream
splays to the base
of the retaining wall.
Good. Now you have reason
to pray. Of all the birds
watching from winter-stripped
trees, vultures
are kindest, killing nothing.
This is a true
measure of things.
Don't hold back now, have
chocolate, throw extra
kindling on, even though
skies urge cover & hoarding.
When mice pitter in
for crumbs, compliment
their small feet and fitting
ways. When your mouth
houses a curse, swallow,
think how you once
had no words at all
yet managed
your hungers. Everything
that comes, passes.
Everything that passes
rakes its fingers through
and passes.
The Hat City after Men Stopped Wearing Hats
Rich with local detail, these elegiac poems capture a working-class Polish-American boyhood in the 1960s, and pay tribute to neighborhood characters who are lovingly individuated yet acquire universal resonance from the way the poet brings their ordinary lives to light. The mood of aging and decline is leavened by a sense that love is as real as pain. This book won the 2006 Word Works Washington Prize.
The Healing Muse
Explores themes of medicine, illness, disability, healing, and more. This annual literary journal is published by the Center for Bioethics and Humanities at Upstate Medical University, a branch of the SUNY system. They accept unpublished fiction, poetry, narratives, essays, memoirs and visual art.
The Help
In 1962, the civil rights movement has barely touched the ladies of Jackson, Mississippi, who continue to treat their African-American maids like dirt—that is, until one misfit heiress with journalistic ambitions convinces the longsuffering housekeepers and nannies to share their anonymous testimonies in a book that will scandalize the community. Though the novel's neat happy ending could be considered too "Hollywood", this tale of interracial friendship is inspiring and enjoyable.
The hitchhiking robot has been found dead
By Vernita Hall
beheaded and dismembered in Philadelphia, where the lifeless life form was discovered
in Olde City. The robot's followers were shocked and deeply saddened by the news.
A group calling itself "Nobots" has claimed responsibility. Their spokesperson, Dell E.
Terious, issued this statement:
It's about jobs. It's about humanity.
We call on all Americans to oppose
the raw evil of automation.
We've struck a blow for human independence.
No bots! No bots! No bots!
They've released a video of the execution, where hooded members, holding raised
machetes, chant:
Raw
evil demands
war
demands evil
Human rights activists have decried the killing. They've called the fringe crusaders
savages, expressing outrage that the grinning guest—benign, child-sized, and
helpless—was martyred in the cradle of liberty.
Still, the bot's creators have committed to continue their novel social experiment.
But Ms. Terious has cautioned more to come. Up next, a warning on the perils of
hitchhiking.
This is Mark Jeering, Ferret News. And that's the way it is.

The Home for Wayward Clocks
In this beautiful and innovative novel, an abused boy becomes a recluse who lavishes all his human warmth on the clocks he rescues and repairs for his museum. But a disabling accident, and the arrival of an abused teenage girl who needs his help, compel him to reach out to his neighbors and learn to trust again. His storyline is interspersed with the stories of the clock-owners.
The Hospital Poems
A powerful contribution to the literature of disability, this autobiography in verse exposes a childhood spent at the mercy of medical "experts", who performed invasive and ultimately futile surgeries to correct his uneven legs. With dark humor and an insistence on facts over rhetoric, Ferris restores dignity to the bodies of those whom the establishment treats as problems to be fixed. This book won the 2004 Main Street Rag Poetry Book Award.
The Houses Along the Wall: A Pembrokeshire Poetry Cycle
By Karen Hayes. With stately cadence and tender attention to detail, this poetry chapbook imagines personal histories for a row of old houses in a Welsh seaside village, where a dwindling community depends on tourism to replace the fishing economy. The style and setting have the flavor of T.S. Eliot's "The Dry Salvages", without the philosophical pomposity.

The Imaginary Poets
The brilliant idea behind this Tupelo Press anthology: ask 22 leading poets to invent an alter ego, "translate" one of his or her poems, and write a short bio and critical essay about the "author". From David Kirby inventing a lost Scandinavian language for his fisherman-poet "Kevnor", to Victoria Redel discussing the feminist implications of the poems "Tzadie Rackel" sewed into her dishrags, these deadpan critical essays play with the conventions of academic poetry and criticism, in the same way that Cindy Sherman's imaginary film stills trick us into "recognizing" characters and poses that are so archetypical that we think we've really seen the movie. If you've ever found the museum placards more interesting than the modern art they describe, this book will make you laugh and think.

the lake has no saint
Repeated images of old houses, vines, and being underwater give this poetry chapbook the blurry, yearning atmosphere of a recurring dream, where one searches for the lost or never-known phrase that would make sense of a cloud of memories. Even as Waite offers compelling glimpses of discovering a masculine self within a body born female, womanhood exerts its tidal pull through domestic scenes with a female lover who seems perpetually on the verge of vanishing. This collection won the Snowbound Series Chapbook Award from Tupelo Press.
The Last True Story I’ll Ever Tell
This hard-hitting memoir by a young veteran of the 2003 Iraq war portrays a failed system of military leadership that exposed infantrymen to pointless risks as their mission became increasingly unclear. Crawford joined the Florida National Guard before 9/11 for the tuition benefits, then found himself unexpectedly shipped to Kuwait. Scarcity of men and materials meant that his unit's tour of duty was continually being extended, yet they were not given the tools to do the job. Crawford's writing captures the brusque camaraderie and profanity-laced talk of soldiers, while his literary prose brings these harsh scenes to life.

The Little Mermaid
By Jerry Pinkney. Hans Christian Andersen's tragic fairy tale is reconceived by acclaimed author-illustrator Pinkney as an empowering fable about friendship, exploration, and the power of a girl's voice. Lush paintings in gold and blue tones, featuring Black characters, make this one of the most delightful retellings of a famous story. Definitely superior to the Disney version, or at least an essential text to have on hand when your child watches the movie.
The Long Winter of 2014
By Janet Ruth Heller
Winter attacked us like a mugger,
battering us with frigid winds, hail,
whiteouts that closed roads
and shattered the power grid.
Snow piled fifteen feet high
obliterated mailboxes and froze solid,
blocking letters from friends,
jailing us in our homes.
The cold and storms
held us hostage for three months.
Even deer hunkered down,
unable to walk through high drifts.
Then we had a brief thaw
followed by rain
that turned into a blizzard
and axed tree limbs.
Now in late March, winter slowly frees us
from bondage. Snow begins to melt,
but the compressed crystals
resemble harpoons.
Today, the crocus blooms,
displays lavender petals
that dare winter to strike again.

The Luminous In-Between
By Cynthia Leslie-Bole
the portal
is the moment
where mind opens
and what's real rushes in
the nubbly sidewalk
the tarry parking lot
the cars blithely
maneuvering into slots
then suddenly
the bird
the crow
the huddled bundle of feathers
parked in a too-huge space
delineated by very straight
white lines
the stalled crow
blue-black sheen
dulled with dust
toes curling around asphalt
instead of branch
life flickering on and off
in a body remembering flight
in a voice echoing
lost morning warbles
the homeless man
the busy woman
gather to witness
the body heaving
the beak opening
the tongue darting
the lids drawing
opaque curtains across
obsidian eyes
as cars cruise by
with AC on high
time collapses
to one still point
the black hole of crow
in holy retreat
of spirit from flesh
I am the woman
watching
with impotent compassion
I am the vagrant
shrugging
with philosophical detachment
I am the bird
feeling life wane
choosing not to struggle
letting what's next begin
I am the white lines
containing it all
I am
breath
no breath
and the luminous
in-between

The Malevolent Volume
By Justin Phillip Reed. This award-winning Black queer poet's sophomore collection gives a furious and brilliant voice to the shadow side of literary classics from Homer to Plath. The syntax of this poetry collection is thorny and twisted, and the word choice demands slow re-reading to discern the full meaning and appreciate the muscular rhythm. Reed is fond of using words that could be either nouns or verbs, placing them in such a way that you would mistake one for the other until the context becomes clear. One could see this style as a political choice in keeping with the book's passionate reclaiming of Blackness as an aesthetic. Reed is asserting that he deserves the reader's close attention. He is as important, and as intellectually accomplished, as the writers in the white literary canon that these poems deconstruct with wicked cleverness.
The Maven Game
David Moldawer was an acquisitions editor for major NYC publishing houses, and now runs Bookitect, an editing and ghostwriting service. His weekly email newsletter, The Maven Game, features his entertaining and informative reflections on the craft and business of writing.
The Meadow
By Scott A. Winkler. Old-fashioned and wholesome, this Vietnam War era coming-of-age novel reminds us that there was more to America in the late 1960s than the coastal counterculture. The eldest son of small-town Wisconsin dairy farmers, high school graduate Walt Neumann is torn between his dreams of becoming a college-educated writer and his rugged, taciturn father's demand that his sons carry on his legacy of military service. Not your typical rebel, Walt deeply honors his family's traditions of hard manual labor and service to the place they call home, but grows to understand that the traumatic stories locked inside the stolid "Greatest Generation" veterans may be preventing an entire nation from learning from its errors. Beautiful writing and sensitive character portraits make this meditative novel a good opener for blue- and red-state Americans to start understanding each other.
The Mirror
Do you see gazelles pronking up and down like snow flakes falling to the ground
Or do you see the ocean dark and blue
Do you see me on a crystal wave floating out to sea
Or does the tide roll your heart along the ocean floor
My tears for you will never lie
Even though your eyes could never see the tears you had inside for me
You told me life was a balancing game and that we hold the balance
You rode your stallion in the rain
You rode him all through the night
You rode him never letting go for that stallion loved you so
Do you see the meadow in the morning sun
Golden leaves lying on the ground parting left and right like waves rolling out to sea
A faded shadow in a gilded frame trotting faster than before
Towards the scent he knows so well
The reins that hold him tight are now in his sight
Her hand lifting into the air
Golden honey dripping on her finger tips
Dancing drops of golden rain so sweet surround his tongue again
This the angels from above only give for two to share
For love and trust are just skin deep this moment for mortals not to keep
Black stallion's mane waving in the breeze balancing on his knees
Her hand once by her side striking at the fore
Spooked forever more
Galloping into the night
Following shadows cast by stars above forever now in search of love
Never to return again
But you'll hear him in the wind and taste him in the rain
And in the dark of every night you'll see the stars that are his tears
For he will love you for a thousand years
Copyright 2008 by Neville Klaric
Critique by Jendi Reiter
This month's critique poem, Neville Klaric's "The Mirror", uses a free-flowing modern verse form to freshen its traditional romantic sentiments and imagery. Energetic as the dream-stallion who embodies the passion of the protagonists, the poem's momentum is driven by internal rhymes and the syncopation of longer and shorter lines. However, inconsistent use of pronouns caused the occasional stumble for this reader, as the poem appears to shift from an "I/You" to a "He/She" perspective without making it clear whether these are the same characters.
The unrequited love of the original speaker is enigmatically interwoven with another story of a woman and a creature who appears to be a stallion, but actually represents Romantic Love itself—fleeting, ecstatic, wounded yet made sublime by loss. ("For love and trust are just skin deep this moment for mortals not to keep.") The beloved must disappear as a mortal individual in order to be transfigured into an immortal ideal, as described in the last four lines of the poem.
This understanding of romance harks back to the medieval tradition of courtly love, in which unconsummated passion for an unattainable Lady was sublimated into artistic expressions of devotion. This state of refined frustration was considered nobler than an ordinary coupling between two individuals. (Denis de Rougemont's Love in the Western World is in my view a matchless history of this idea as well as a critique of its impact on our present culture. For a good summary of the book, click here.)
At first I wondered whether this poem should be called "The Mirror", as this initial image was not always well-integrated into the poem's storyline. However, the title points to the shadow side of romantic love, which is its narcissism. One could argue that the courtly lover actually worships a construction of his own mind, to the point where genuine intimacy with the other person becomes an impediment to the fantasy. W.H. Auden explored this dilemma in his poem "Alone", which begins:
Each lover has a theory of his own
About the difference between the ache
Of being with his love, and being alone:
Why what, when dreaming, is dear flesh and bone
That really stirs the senses, when awake,
Appears a simulacrum of his own.
With this in mind, we can see why the speaker of the poem invites his lover to "look into the mirror" as the first step toward rekindling their romance. He seems to be inviting her to know herself, yet he begins with images that are not really "about" her at all, the gazelles and the ocean. Perhaps he is saying that our heart's deep response to natural beauty is akin to the impulse behind romantic love, and that reawakening the former passion can revive the latter as well.
This argument culminates in the fusion of nature, art and the erotic in the figure of the stallion, who appears to move seamlessly between the realms of imagination and reality. Coming in the middle of the breathless description of the woman and her stallion-lover galloping through golden leaves, the line "A faded shadow in a gilded frame trotting faster than before" adds a surprising twist. This creature, so physically present a moment ago, is seen from another perspective as a distant ideal, a figure in a painting come magically to life, or passing like Alice "through the looking-glass" from one world into another. Again, this subtly raises the question of whether romantic love is more like looking in the mirror than looking outward at the beloved.
About halfway through, the poem undergoes a pronoun-shift that I find confusing, starting with the lines "Her hand lifting into the air/Golden honey dripping on her finger tips/Dancing drops of golden rain so sweet surround his tongue again". From the context, it seems likely that we are still talking about the woman who loves the stallion, but since she is also the narrator's beloved, it's not clear whether the "he" in this episode is the narrator or the horse.
The line "Black stallion's mane waving in the breeze balancing on his knees" further complicates the picture. "Waving in the breeze" suggests that the horse is galloping, so he could not be balancing on his (the horse's) knees. Is it then the narrator who is balancing, as a rider? The position sounds physically awkward even so. I suspect that the phrase about "knees" was put in for the sake of the rhyme, and should either be taken out or set off from the preceding phrase with some connecting words to show that these are two different moments and/or characters.
At the end, the speaker goes back to addressing the woman as "you", which perhaps the author meant to do all along. I would recommend making the usage consistent throughout: "Your hand lifting into the air" and so on. At this point I had to wonder whether the narrator himself was even necessary to the story, because he never reappears after the line "You told me life was a balancing game". After that, it becomes solely the love story of the woman and the stallion. Ultimately I decided that I liked the back-story of the speaker's own lost love because it gives the reader a personal, emotional entry point into the other story—a reason to care about the woman, and to believe she is a real person rather than a stock character in a romantic poem.
However, this frame is still missing one of its sides, in my opinion. I wouldn't want to dilute the power of the ending by adding new lines there; the poem should end on its main theme, not its subplot. A good transition point to add new material would be after "...for mortals not to keep". Here, a line or two could be inserted to complete the speaker's own story. What is he trying to tell her about their relationship by reminding her of this other love in her life? What insight into his situation does he take away from the stallion's story of loss and transformation? "The Mirror" needs one more step in its argument to reach a unified resolution for the profound themes its beautiful imagery sets in motion.

The Most of It
Like Socrates, the narrator of these engaging prose-poems asks innocent-seeming questions about our habitual ways of thinking, but the reader who takes up the challenge will find the territory shift suddenly from featherbrained whimsy to a profoundly unsettling realization of the emptiness of language and the ego, ending with a return to childlike humility that facilitates a spiritual awakening.

The Mountain in the Sea
By Ray Nayler. This compelling hard-science thriller is set in a reshaped geopolitical environment, where humankind's aggressive harvesting of the oceans for protein may have put evolutionary pressure on octopuses to develop a civilization of comparable intelligence as ours. But rather than pitting humans against nature, the multi-layered and well-researched plot comes down to two theories of consciousness: the colonialist quest for knowledge-as-control, or empathy across the mysterious divide of self from other. The stakes are nothing less than human survival on the planet.
