"Yslea is a 19-year-old young woman struggling to make a life in Memphis, Tennessee. From the outside, others judge her as a caricature of herself - she's poor, she left school after 9th grade, she's pregnant, she's single. Her mother was black and her father was white. Her life seems full of contradictions and surrounded by pain. But one day, she drifts into the lives of four strangers who live in three dilapidated row houses along the ..."
"From its beginnings, philosophy's language, concepts, and imaginative growth have been heavily influenced by poetry and poets. Drawing on the work of a wide range of thinkers throughout the history of western philosophy, Raymond Barfield explores the pervasiveness of poetry's impact on philosophy and, conversely, how philosophy has sometimes resisted or denied poetry's influence.

His style is beautifully controlled and then he lets go at the just the right moment. Wonderful."-Katia Kapovich "Raymond Barfield's poems are essential to the age we live in.

"This history has concentrated on the quarrel as it is portrayed and expressed in
writing. Throughout, poetry and the poets show up in philosophy as a source of
language, a source of ideas, or source of inspiration, or else an obstacle to ideas,
a foil, a source of lunacy, a punching bag. It is a persistent relationship, so far
