DOWNLOAD EBOOKGary Truce's poems cover a variety of subjects such as nature, personal relationships, and the cosmos. As a long-time professor of health and wellness, one might expect to see poems promoting wholesome relationships and healthy lifestyles. However, the poems' speakers are often not Truce and we read of troubled lives. Hence, the title, Voices on Visions, with Truce as poet persona playing many roles. The speakers are usually compassionate and sensitive indulging in the beauty and wonder of nature. Other speakers are lost, searching, depressed, romantic, or comic. Truce seems happiest when he communes with nature describing wildlife, landscapes, bodies of water, and an ever-changing sky. Sometimes the reader is taken beyond Earth to an exploration of the cosmic-at times with a Godly perspective with reassuring orderliness, and at other times with a human perspective filled with uncertainty, despair, folly, confusion, or amazement. Ultimately, Truce's high degree of optimism tips the balance in Visions. So, feel the crisp coolness of spring air, pour the maple syrup and melt the butter on blueberry pancakes while viewing the maple grove through the open kitchen window. As Truce writes, "And when the steam appears from the sugar shack-you know at last it's spring!"

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book introduces to a larger audience the work of a group of Mexican writers whose work reflects the stimulus of the "boom" of the 1960s, especially in the experimental nueva novella.Duncan views the work of six writers in the context of more well known writers of the period (Ruflo, Fuentes, and Del Paso), and concludes with a chapter on other recent innovators in Mexican literature. Despite their diversity, these texts share many common features, and unlike social realism, the works are not openly political, but at the same time they question assumptions about reality itself-and the relation of fiction to truth.
