Rival Gardens: New and Selected PoemsFor decades a restorer of old homes, Connie Wanek shows us that poetry is everywhere, encountered as easily in the waterways, landscapes, and winters of Minnesota, as in the old roofs and darkened drawers of a home long uninhabited. Rival Gardens includes more than thirty unpublished poems, along with poems selected from three previous books all in Wanek's unmistakable voice: plainspoken and elegant, unassuming and wise, observant and original.

For decades a restorer of old homes, Connie Wanek shows us that poetry is everywhere, encountered as easily in the waterways, landscapes, and winters of Minnesota, as in the old roofs and darkened drawers of a home long uninhabited. Rival Gardens includes more than thirty unpublished poems, along with poems selected from three previous books-all in Wanek's unmistakable voice: plainspoken and elegant, unassuming and wise, observant and original. Many of her new poems focus on the garden, beginning with the Garden of Eden. A deep feeling for family and for the losses and gains of growing into maturity mark the tone of Rival Gardens, with Wanek always attending to the telling detail and the natural world. Connie Wanek is the author of three books of poetry-Bonfire, Hartley Field, and On Speaking Terms-and the coeditor of the award-winning anthology To Sing Along the Way: Minnesota Women Poets from Pre-territorial Days to the Present. She has been a Witter Bynner Fellow of the Library of Congress and was named George Morrison Artist of the Year, an honor given to a northern Minnesotan for contributions to the arts over many years. She has lived for decades in Duluth, Minnesota.Binding Type: Paperback

Very Fine, High Quality Spirulina
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Wow, they really vacuum seal these bags! When I received this bag, it was practically brick hard, as if the contents has frozen in there. I was a little nervous about what that might mean for the powder, but after I cut across the top and let some air out, it all changed. The powder was super vivid forest green; and it was soft and fluffy with constant little clouds of powder coming out of the bag. If I just sit here with the bag open, tiny green particles keep flying out on its own. This powder is extremely fine! That's a good thing since the finer the powdern the higher the quality, in most cases.
The brilliant green color is wonderful, and it instantly provides energy and great health benefits. I believe everyone should be taking Spirulina and other natural supplements since the average American diet is way under proper nourishment.
This Spirulina tastes pretty terrible to me, so I blended it with some other healthy powders- moringa, beet, and triphala- to make an awesome superfood health supplement! This way it's easy to take, I can share the wealth, and take in vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that my body needs for energy and proper nourishment. Encapsulating is definitely a good idea for those who simply don't make smoothies for all of their supplements every day, and for those who easily forget or need to take various health supplements. This is a great combo.

Excellent Translation, Footnotes
Format: Hardcover
Excellent translation, pairs well with the first volume from the Loeb Library. This one has the same translator and editor. The English is a bit "grand" as suits the Greek, but not so archaic or out of step with modern English that it'd give the reader pause. This is a great copy of the Odyssey for folks who want to follow the Greek with a nearby English translation for reference.
