Publisher's Summary:

Over the centuries the Christian festival of the celebration of Christ has lost much of its religious element as it has morphed into becoming a convenient date for mass marketing and the consumption of excess food, drink and material goods to a now global audience.But look below the glossy veneer of commercialism and we find a truer meaning, a moral message and guidance that whilst we may all want it watered down a little in these more secular times does contain some truths and principles for us all to enjoy better lives and better relationships with those around us.In this volume of fifty poems our classic poets bring us everything from the tried and trusted view to the irreverent but mainly focus on their faith that can rejoice at this festival and makes us all part of the human race, its ideals and its joys. From Dickinson, Chesterton, Hardy, Yeats, Jonson, Rossetti and many others, come welcome lines of humanity that give us all cause to celebrate.

Title: [German] - Schmetterling im Winter (Ungekürzte Lesung)

Author: Tobias Bamborschke

Narrator: Tobias Bamborschke

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 0 hours 54 minutes

Release date: October 7, 2021

Genres: Poetry

Publisher's Summary:

Tobias Bamborschke, 1988 in Köln geboren und in Berlin aufgewachsen, ist Sänger und Texter der Band Isolation Berlin. Bamborschke beherrscht die Kunst, seine Leser und Zuhörer in den Bann zu ziehen und hat bereits als Lyriker für Aufsehen gesorgt. 2017 erschien sein viel beachteter erster Gedichtband 'Mir platzt der Kotzkragen'. Lakonisch und mit heiterem Pathos vermisst der wütende Melancholiker Tobias Bamborschke die unbekannten Weiten seines Alltags. Tobias Bamborschke macht Musik mit Isolation Berlin. Wer die Band kennt, weiß, dass hier mit großer Genauigkeit Bilder entworfen werden wie man sie auch in der Literatur nicht oft findet, da singt Bamborschke unverbraucht und klug und ohne Distanz zu einer Welt, die es ihm nicht leicht macht. Seine Gedichte scheinen beeinflusst von Autoren wie Kaléko, Eichendorff, Trakl, Lasker-Schüler und Hesse, aber auch Jandl und H.C. Artmann sind nicht fern, aber wer weiß das schon und was heißt das schon? Tobias Bamborschke ist wahrscheinlich keiner von denen, die anderen nacheifern. Er schlägt sich seinen eigenen Weg durch das Dickicht der Kunst, und wenn der parallel und in Sichtweite zur Autobahn verläuft, dann ist ihm das offensichtlich und zu Recht egal! Beim Lesen seiner Gedichte ist man jedenfalls erstaunt, wie es Bamborschke gelingt, aus der Tradition zu schöpfen und zugleich etwas so Gegenwärtiges, unmittelbar Greifbares zu schaffen. Mit einer fast schon unheimlichen Leichtigkeit, Lust und Melodie führt er uns entlang an verwohnten Straßen, schaurigen Parks und haarsträubenden S-Bahn-Fahrten in gedankliche Abgründe voller funkelnder Sprachbilder. Das ist große Kunst. Der in Köln geborene und in Berlin aufgewachsene Sänger, Texter und Schauspieler bringt nun einen zweiten Gedichtband heraus und läßt den Leser in der Gedankenwelt des Autors regelrecht untergehen. Bamborschke beherrscht als immer am Abgrund balancierende Rampensau die Kunst, den Leser und als Lesender die Zuhörer durch seine Gedichte, Gedanken und Spelunken in den Bann zu ziehen - das bewies er bereits früh beim Berliner Writer's Thursday, wo er neben Thomas Melle, Margarete Stokowski, Ronja von Rönne, Katrin Theiner und Friederike Kempter Auszüge seines ersten Gedichtbandes 'Mir platzt der Kotzkragen' vortrug. Das war großartig und hat alle sofort hingerissen! Jetzt legt er mit Schmetterling im Winter noch einen drauf. Wer das Buch in seinen Händen hält, wird feststellen: Es ist auch schön! Um den Takt, Rhythmus der Gedichte auch aufs Papier zu bringen, tippt Bamborschke seine Gedichte auf der Schreibmaschine seiner Großmutter, einer Princess 100 der Firma Keller und Knappich GmbH - Augsburg. In einer gerechten Literaturwelt wird man mit Tobias Bamborschkes Gedichten in der Hosentasche herumlaufen wie einst mit denen Leonard Cohens.

Title: Every Good Boy Does Fine: Poetry and Prose

Author: Calvin Arsenia

Narrator: Calvin Arsenia

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 1 hour 10 minutes

Release date: October 5, 2021

Genres: Poetry

Publisher's Summary:

“Glowing with warmth, vulnerability, and a heavy heart, Arsenia’s intimate reflections depict the past and present wrestling within the individual as he endeavors to chart his own course in the world.”—Atwood Magazine Both a journey of individual healing and a call for action, these poems show that, with a little love and acceptance, anyone can flourish. From one of Kansas City’s most exciting singers Calvin Arsenia, comes a debut book of poetry and prose Every Good Boy Does Fine. Named for the classic mnemonic used to teach the lines of the treble clef (EGBDF), his collection speaks to his passion as a musician and also his deep and tumultuous history in the Evangelical community. Arsenia includes elements of queer poetry, writings on racial awakening, Christian de-conversion, and sexual awakenings in a homophobic community with the hopes that, when finished reading, readers will feel ready to start their own journey of self-expression through music and performance. A profoundly thoughtful and enlightening work, Arsenia uses his lyrical talent to show that there is always somewhere to go no matter where you are coming from.
