4.9/5 (11964 ratings)

Description:Meadowland Take My Hand is an eco-adventure and exploration of both the toxic and the playful, where play is an act of redemption in a shrinking environment. Narrative and lyric poetry mark the way along this journey through the Meadowlands, where loss and hope abide."Pamela Hughes' eye reaches what is both beautiful and mundane. Literally or spiritually, she gives each landscape her vibrant, precise attention in all of its colors and textures. Nature itself doubles as a narrative or autobiography. Hughes writes, "And you are revised - /like the sky after a thunderstorm."These poems, which praise the joys and tensions of ordinary life, offer a refreshing candor. Hughes elevates the common alphabet of the daily world to the poet's luminous ecstasy...--RACHEL ELIZA GRIFFITH, author of of: Lighting the Shadow; Mule and Pear; and Miracle Arrhythmia"Brooklyn has Whitman, Manhattan has O’Hara, Harlem has Hughes, and with this acutely visual and uniquely rhythmic mapping of geographical memory, Pamela Hughes reaffirms her permanent appointment as poet laureate of the New Jersey Meadowlands and the unexplored territories therein and there out. What a great book of poems!”—PAUL BEATTY, author of The Sellout, winner of The Man Booker Prize“Pamela Hughes’ has given us a book of celebration, of protest, of concern & grief for the way that we are ruining our world. She captures in this collection beauty longing & love for the land & earth. This is a necessary book, a book we all should read--one that we keep on our bedside tables to remind us of what's important.”-- MARIA MAZZIOTTI GILLAN, American Book Award winner & Editor of The Paterson Literary Review"This environmentally awake book is a New Jersey treasure, brimming with the Garden State's many hidden beauties, like ' . . . the painted turtle basking on the sun of a small rock,' treasures discovered and uniquely illuminated in Pamela Hughes' smart, sassy, sometimes funny, rich, allusive reveries." –SANDER ZULAUF, Editor Emeritus, Journal of NJ Poets & author of Basho in AmericaWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
