Описание: Poetry. ALL THE WASTED BEAUTY OF THE WORLD, a finalist for the 2012 Able Muse Book Award, extols the beautiful as readily as it expounds on the blemished. The reasoned commingles with the rambunctious, as in the case of the speaker who declares that our lives span diaper to diaper, / and in between we piss on anyone / we can. Little escapes notice in these poems of gutsy realism and formal deftness, which freely highlight the fringes of society--the speaker in Bellefontaine Cemetery exhorts teens to party on people's graves and have a few close shaves with county sheriffs, the carcass of a Ford truck intrudes on a hiking trail's gully, the homeless are lullabied to find rest behind our dumpster / . . . score a fifth of bourbon / and find your stomach full. Richard Newman brings us a collection that prods and soars with the grit and beauty of the real world.
Richard Newman's ALL THE WASTED BEAUTY OF THE WORLD is masterful and magnetic, from the 'galaxy of gnats' hovering in the St. Louis twilight to the way a backwoods junkyard 'gnaws on a pile of old Ford bones.' He sees a group of bored high school kids with 'nothing to lose / but stupid summer jobs and innocence, ' and captures with perfect acuity how 'September rain in streetlight / silvers the cypress needles, scatters new dimes / among the nuisance alley mulberry trees.' Newman's poems, with their formal, lapidary precision, their indelible portraits of life in the cheap bars, back alleys, and rough-hewn edges of the Midwest, surprise a hunger in us for a language larger, wilder, and unabashedly loftier than daily speech.--George Bilgere
The poems in Richard Newman's remarkable third collection, ALL THE WASTED BEAUTY OF THE WORLD, are heady explorers. They roam from Lost Man Pass to Benton Park, from downtown St. Louis to Southern Indiana, all the while balancing gorgeous musicality with lyric originality. In the midst of the wandering, there is longing in these poems--for place, for order, for morning. There is urgency, too, and beauty, wasted and otherwise, in places we don't always expect it. Newman is a bold and masterful formalist in a free-verse world, and he uses sonnets, aubades, villanelles, and odes to reconcile the geographies of the interior and exterior. Again and again, this collection makes us recalibrate our true north and forces us to reconsider the world for all of the unpredictable places where we can find beauty.--Adrian Matejka
Newman uses the power of recollection and imagery to craft odes, sonnets, villanelles, ballads, and free verse with titles like 'Four Kids Pissing off the Overpass after a Cardinals Game.' Each poem calls our attention to a rough-and-tumble, everyday America we often drive past but overlook. ALL THE WASTED BEAUTY OF THE WORLD returns us to the real and, consequently, the new by putting on the brakes and asking us to look, if only briefly, beyond our rear- views.--Dorianne Laux

Описание: Some universal truths refuse to be ignored.Peanut butter and jelly are a match made in heaven. Spaghetti and meatballs are best friends forever. And guys like Tyler Knight don't go for girls like Cam Emerson.She knew from the second she met him that he didn't belong on her bookshelf, the six-foot-six ex-tight end with a face so all-American, it could have sold apple pie. So she shelved him next to the supermodels and rock stars and took her place on her own shelf - the one with the flannel-clad, pasty-faced comic book nerds. Most of her boyfriends have existed between the pages of books, but rather than worrying over her own lacking love life, she puts all her energy into playing Cupid, using her job at the book bar, Wasted Words, as her stomping ground.Tyler Knight always looks on the bright side. His career-ending injury turned into a job as a sports agent. A horrible breakup led him to Cam, his quirky, smart roommate who is far more beautiful than she realizes. She's made it perfectly clear she's not interested in him - not like that at least - but if she ever changes her mind, he won't hesitate. Because he doesn't see the lines she's drawn between them, as much as she insists that they're there. Deep down he knows that despite their differences, they're a match well made.*A romantic comedy inspired by Jane Austen's Emma*
