Guerrilla Nation: My Wars In and Out of Vietnam

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Maclear, Michael, PUBLISHER: Dundurn Group Ltd, In September , Michael Maclear, the first Western television journalist allowed inside North Vietnam, was in Hanoi for CBC-TV when Ho Chi Minh died. He recounted in gripping detail how an entire population had been trained for generations in guerrilla combat. His reporting was highly controversial and led to interference by the RCMP and the U.S. Pentagon. Later Maclear was taken blindfolded to a Hanoi prison for captive U.S. pilots, some of whom condemned the war. President Richard Nixon described the journalist as "duped." At odds with a nervous CBC, Maclear was dismissed as foreign correspondent and then resigned from the network. Recently, Maclear returned to Vietnam and interviewed surviving key figures from the war. In this book he includes startling new information on guerrilla tactics and delivers an impassioned argument for the necessity of journalistic impartiality and integrity that those who care about such things can't afford to miss.

Elegies in Blue: Poems

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Saenz, Benjamin Alire, PUBLISHER: Cinco Puntos Press, Benjamin Saenz writes, "In the desert, we live in a desert of translation." That is exactly what he sets out to do, in this, his third book of poems--translate experience into words. He writes of history and learning and death. He writes of loss and knowledge and the difficulties of coming to terms with the harsh and untamable landscape of the border. Ultimately, his elegies are "stones that praise the lives" of those who have given him words. In the tradition of Latin American literature, Saenz believes that poetry should be part of the public discourse and not shunted aside as irrelevant to our country's larger issues. Here he maps out personal, political and spiritual histories. He speaks about political and literary heroes, anti-heroes and everyday people, and he remembers his growing up Chicano in the Catholic world of the U.S./Mexico Border. From these elements, he creates a philosophy of speaking publicly as poet.

The Sun Unwound: Poems from Occupied America

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brotherston, Gordon / Dorn, Edward, PUBLISHER: North Atlantic Books, The result of a 20-year collaboration between poet Edward Dorn and scholar Gordon Brotherston, "The Sun Unwound" gathers together the disparate voices of oppressed Americans through the centuries: the hymns, songs, and prayers of Mesoamericans and other native peoples; the verse of eight Latin American guerrillas of the 's; and works by three of Latin America's most important avant-garde poets of the twentieth century. The Native Americans saw their cultures obliterated, most of the guerrillas died in their struggles, and the modernists have faced persecution, prison, and torture for their left-wing convictions. Previously untranslated or unavailable to most North Americans, their poems offer a striking counterpoint to the colonialist, capitalist, Anglo-Saxon ethos.
