Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Originally drafted over a six-month period, the five-line sections of each poem in Reliquaries were written mostly as walking meditations in the hills and woods above and along the banks of the Occoquan River in Virginia. While that landscape is present in several places in the collection, the mind in these poems wanders arctic zones, England, Europe, the distances and openness of the American Midwest where the poet grew up, and takes up subjects such as the death of family and friends, faith and doubt, beauty and the sublime, philosophy and art. This book is Pankey's most expansive, accessible and wide-ranging to date. Written in long lines that, like Whitman's, catalog and collect, arrange out of the scattershot an order--even if only a momentary order, even if only a relic of order on which one places faith in a greater unifying order. Completed on a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship at the same time as 2003's Oracle Figures (Ausable Press), Reliquaries is a cousin and companion to that book. It is a book-length sequence of poems that combines the spiritual and sometimes hermetic quest of Pankey's short lyric poems of the 1990s (Apocrypha, The Late Romances and Cenotaph) with his more directly narrative, plain-spoken poems of the 1980s (For the New Year, Heartwood). Like a reliquary, each poem not only holds shards of memory, relics of the past, but each poem is a meditation upon the complexity of memory--its uncertainty and mutability, its precision and candor, its grave density and its ether-weight. Eric Pankey has received the Walt Whitman Award from The Academy of American Poets, the Poetry Award from the Library of Virginia and fellowships from the Ingram Merrill Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts and the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation. A professor of English at George Mason University, he lives in Fairfax, Virginia.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. For James and Piers, life seems to offer everything successful careers, financial security, a home of their own, cherished friendships, and holidays spent in Wales and East Anglia. Most of all, they have their deep love for each other. But can their relationship survive the prejudice of others, especially James controlling mother, Alice Kendrick, who is determined to tear them apart? As pressure mounts at work, James is forced to confront not only a dark and unsettling past but also the manipulative Marcus Stone, whose influence threatens to unravel everything. Together, they share passions for gardening, church architecture, Venice, and even Piers sometimes comical attempts at flower arranging. Yet, as the heat of the summer of 1976 builds, their simple pleasures are eclipsed by events that will test their love to its limits. A weekend by the sea becomes a defining moment, one from which there can be no return. Set against the backdrop of university politics and ambition, Dark Runs the River is a tender yet gripping story of love, loss, and the strength to endure.…
