2nd Place Winner of The Poetry Box Chapbook Prize, 2020
Because everybody has a mother. And everybody's going to lose her.
A collection of poems inspired by one woman's relationship with her mother, the chapbook My Mother Never Died Before and Other Poems sounds heavy, but lands light. The first half includes poems written after the mother's death. The poet focuses on the everyday, mundane details-what the funeral home visit was like, how birds felt like messages, the unexpected realities of life without one's mother. The second half pulls back the camera to include poems written before the death, which capture the ups and downs of the mother-child relationship. Wry humor and a companionable narrative style invite the reader in to one particular take on a universal story.
"My Mother Never Died Before is a joyful read, full of surprises. Marcia B. Loughran shows her versatility and variety while bringing a welcome dose of humor to this collection, which is hard to pull off in poems about death. The many familiar scenes here-shopping for caskets, cleaning out papers after a parent has died, touching their intimate objects like breath mints and combs-are all painted with such clarity and reality."
-Amy Miller, Contest Judge, 2020
"With the strength of language precise yet lyrical, odd but familiar, full of heart though refreshingly void of even a hint of the saccharine, Loughran has written a eulogy that would make any mother proud..."
-Lissa Kiernan, Founding Director of the Poetry Barn
"The mother at the center of these poems emerges as someone who was witty, adventurous and, above all, kind. I found myself longing to sit in her yellow kitchen while making home-made Christmas ornaments over a cup of tea, with milk from a bone china jug."
-Cusi Cram, Arts Professor, Tisch School of the Arts

Описание: Sheila Kaye-Smith (4 February 1887 - 14 January 1956) was an English writer, known for her many novels set in the borderlands of Sussex and Kent in the English regional tradition. Her 1923 book The End of the House of Alard became a best-seller, and gave her prominence; it was followed by other successes, and her books enjoyed worldwide sales. Interest in her novel Joanna Godden (1921) was revived after it was adapted as a film titled The Loves of Joanna Godden (1947), which had a different conclusion. In the 1980s, this novel and Susan Spray were reissued by Virago press.

Описание: Ada Cambridge (21 November 1844 - 19 July 1926), later known as Ada Cross, was an English-born Australian writer. She wrote more than 25 works of fiction, three volumes of poetry and two autobiographical works. Many of her novels were serialised in Australian newspapers but never published in book form. While she was known to friends and family by her married name, Ada Cross, her newspaper readers knew her as A C. She later reverted to her maiden name, Ada Cambridge, and that is how she is known today. While Cambridge began writing in the 1870s to make money to help support her children, her formal published career spans from 1865 with Hymns on the Litany and The Two Surplices, to 1922 with an article "Nightfall" in Atlantic Monthly.

Описание: Edna St. Vincent Millay (February 22, 1892 - October 19, 1950) was an American lyrical poet and playwright. Encouraged to read the classics at home, she was too rebellious to make a success of formal education, but she won poetry prizes from an early age, including the Pulitzer Prize in 1923, and went on to use verse as a medium for her feminist activism. She also wrote verse-dramas and a highly-praised opera The King's Henchman. Her novels appeared under the name Nancy Boyd, and she refused lucrative offers to publish them under her own name. Millay was a prominent social figure of New York City's Greenwich Village, just as it was becoming known as a bohemian writer's colony.

Описание: My poems are organically inspired by nature, music or movies. Once hit by the blast of stimulating verse, my mind somersaults from the powerful intensity of attack. My target audience would be readers who yearn to throb from rhythmic sensations. Every theme is different so there are all sorts of people who may be intrigued and captivated by my skill with expressions of ardor, passion, romance, life, death and everyday struggles.
Any person who enjoys being titillated by verse should be captivated by the strength of the words in my book. One objective of my book is to stimulate readers and offer excitement and intrigue through my thought-provoking language. While my work of art probably would not be used as a business course or supplement, I hope that it would be utilized to get hosts of humanity interested in poetry and in becoming avid readers. The more we read the more our horizons are broadened and our life experiences are enhanced.
Another essential purpose for writing the book was to offer enjoyment for those people aroused by stunning words and physically levitated by bold creativity....

Описание: """Stay, traveller, stay thy weary steed, The sultry hour of noon is near, Of rest thy way-worn limbs have need, Stay, then, and, taste its sweetness here. The mountain path which thou hast sped Is steep, and difficult to tread, And many a farther step 'twill cost, Ere thou wilt find another host; But if thou scorn'st not humble fare, Such as the pilgrim loves to share, - Not luxury's enfeebling spoil, But bread secured by patient toil- Then lend thine ear to my request, And be the old man's welcome guest. Thou seest yon aged willow tree, In all its summer pomp arrayed, 'Tis near, wend thither, then, with me, My cot is built beneath its shade; And from its roots clear waters burst"

Описание:
Peter Johnson has long been acclaimed by such poets as Russell Edson and Charles Simic as one of the masters of the prose poem. In his new book, Old Man Howling at the Moon, he continues his exploration of the genre, exhibiting his usual comic touch. Johnson calls these new poems "complaints" and traces his influences back to fourteenth-century France, while pointing out in the preface that his wise-fool Grumpy Old Everyman is also very much a part of a tradition, including writers as diverse as Allen Ginsberg, Catullus, and Nicanor Parra. Old Man Howling at the Moon is a welcome arrival at a time when anger and satire are desperately needed to enliven a contemporary poetry scene where often fashionable irony reigns supreme.
