    William Logan has been called "the most hated man in American poetry" and the most dangerous poetry critic since Randall Jarrell. Beginning with an exploration of some of Robert Frost's least-known poems, these essays consider Ezra Pound's letters, T. S. Elliot's metaphysical lectures, the lightness of Elizabeth Bishop, and the civil tongue of Richard Wilbur, finding in poetry a language that lasts beyond the petty conventions of the age. ,pWhile criticism of contemporary poetry is often pallid, diplomatic, and full of evasive judgments, Logan is willing to raise hackles, to be cheerfully controversial. The often eloquent criticism in Desperate Measures, which views poetry from one end of the last century to the other, is a passionate defense of poetry in an unpoetic time.This book is published by University Press of Florida. ungekürzt.

    Parrots will repeat anything. They don’t talk sense—or do they? When Pru Marlowe is called in to retrain a foulmouthed African gray after its owner’s death, she can’t help hearing the parrot’s words as a replay of a murder scene. But the doctor on call scoffs at the idea, and the heirs just want their late mother’s pet to stop cursing. The only other possible witnesses being an evasive aide, a blind neighbor, and a single-minded service dog, Pru is stuck with what may be a featherbrained theory. Even her crotchety tabby Wallis doesn’t buy it, although Wallis would be more than willing to “interrogate” the bird up close. Meanwhile, Pru, the bad-girl animal psychic, is also called on to deal with drugs, jealousy, and a potential rabies outbreak. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tavia Gilbert.

    On the scene of a multiple murder that's grisly even for a veteran homicide detective, Brian Clifton is stunned when one of the victims bears an uncanny resemblance to his boyfriend, James. As the similarities keep piling up, so do the bodies...and the evidence pointing to James as the killer. Since long before the shooting, James has been dishonest. He's been evasive. Oh, and there's that minor detail he withheld from Brian about being a gambling-addicted drug dealer. James may not be the best boyfriend in the world, but he begs Brian to believe he's no killer. In fact, whoever did pull the trigger undoubtedly wants to finish what they started, and Brian is the only one James trusts to keep him safe. But how much is Brian willing to risk to protect a man he may not even know? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charlie David.

    This is the sequel to My Very First Murder. Galvanised by previous success, the narrator confesses to another homicide. Rather than selecting a random victim this time, the eager perpetrator has a particular type in mind. Social cleansing is the killer’s moral justification for slaying a paedophile. The unnamed killer has stepped out of their comfort zone this time. Impulsive and even reckless at times, the murderer sets about their new project with mounting pleasure. The murderer’s journey is not without issues, but deems the result to be worth the extra effort.As before, the storyteller again directly engages with the listener. The evasive narrator will not even reveal their gender, nor which country they operate in. The question is, has the killer become careless? Are there any clues to their identity that are embedded within the audio? Content suitable for 18+. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Musgrove. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/153656/bk_acx0_153656_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
