Diary Of A Passionate Poet

This humble book that you hold in your hand started out as a diary, written on scraps of paper, and in notebooks that were cobbled together and hidden from view by a lonely, displaced little girl. Katarina B. Viktor filled the pages of her secret book with her thoughts, ideas and musings. She would even wake in the middle of the night with inspired thoughts that she wrote down on any bit of paper she could find, including “sticky notes”. When boredom struck on mundane activities like riding the bus, Katarina’s imagination would soar and she kept adding to her writings. Recording her tumultuous feelings and observations of life’s simple joys and beauties provided Viktor with an escape into the world of imagination. As Katarina gradually developed what became an unshakeable faith in God, the spiritual aspect of her poems deepened. Katarina’s diary became to her more than an inanimate object. It was a friend she could confide in. Yet the biggest allies in Katarina’s life became God, The Lord Jesus Christ, and the beautiful man she met and built a life with, at the point she was most broken. Reading this book is not only a journey into Viktor’s own life. It is an astute observation of the lives of others, of studies on nature and a tribute to Katarina’s strong faith. No matter what your beliefs, there is a deep humanity and appreciation of life to be found in these poems.

Whispering Silhouette is life evolving on many levels. It is the life experiences that have taken many down the hidden paths of personal discovery. These paths are a mixture of Williams' interpretation on life, love, and relationships. You will find his interpretations simple, yet sometimes complex-real and at times surreal-emotionally wrenching, as well as, pleasing to the imagination. After reading just a few pieces it becomes quite clear that poetry has become a form of expression and comfort in dealing with his innermost thoughts. Insightfulness, pure elegance, and passion epitomize the poetry of Preston Williams II. With this distinct voice and accessible language, he opens the sensibility to poetry for countless people for whom it might otherwise have remained numb to its influence. In his amazing new collection, the first of many others to come, Williams explores youth, family, life, love, and the passage of time. Preston Williams' poetry is a window through which we see our lives as if for the first time. He uses simple, understandable language, to capture ordinary life-its pleasures, discontents, its moments of sadness and joys. It is considerably difficult not to be charmed by Williams' Whispering Silhouette.

A man disappears. The woman who loves him is left scarred and haunted. In her fierce, one-of-a-kind debut, Rebecca Lindenberg tells the story—in verse—of her passionate relationship with Craig Arnold, a much-respected poet who disappeared in 2009 while hiking a volcano in Japan. Lindenberg’s billowing, I-contain-multitudes style lays bare the poet’s sadnesses, joys, and longings in poems that are lyric and narrative, at once plainspoken and musically elaborate. Regarding her role in Arnold’s story, Lindenberg writes with clear-eyed humility and endearing dignity: “The girl with the ink-stained teeth / knows she’s famous / in a tiny, tragic way. / She’s not / daft, after all.” And then later, playfully, of her travels in Italy with the poet, her lover: “The carabinieri / wanted to know if there were bears / in our part of America. Yes, we said, / many bears. Man-eating bears? Yes, of course, / many man-eating bears.” Every poem in this collection bursts with humor, pathos, verve—and an utterly unique, soulful voice. This widely anticipated debut, already selected as a finalist for several prominent book awards, marks the first collection in the newly minted McSweeney’s Poetry Series. MPS is an imprint which seeks to publish a broad range of excellent new poetry collections in exquisitely designed hardcovers—poetry that’s useful and meaningful to anyone in any walk of life.
