Ein und Alles

&ldquo;A work of remarkable range . . . Like no other poem in the English Language . . . The Book of Ephraim is a profound piece of occult narrative and chance compositional practices, overlaid with the virtuosity and penetrating wit Merrill was known for. . . . [Ready] to be discovered by a new generation of readers.&rdquo; &mdash;Meghan O&rsquo;Rourke, Vulture &ldquo;The very best of the poetry of James Merrill . . . brilliantly annotated and introduced. . . . No other critic of James Merrill could have annotated this poem with such elegance and attentiveness, erudition and love . . . Thorough without being exhaustive; suggestive rather than definitive; a beginning of new explorations . . . Yenser generously allows for a multiplicity of meanings, rarely forcing a particular reading and at all times refusing to limit the complexity and capaciousness of Merrill&rsquo;s linguistic imagination and the inventiveness of his wordplay. He unravels intricate etymologies and draws connections between themes and theories from section to section of the poem, opening up the possibilities of Merrill&rsquo;s poem to readers rather than closing them down. . . One of the greatest of Merrill&rsquo;s literary achievements in his lifetime, [The Book of Ephraim] is also one of the great American long poems of the last century. Stephen Yenser&rsquo;s new annotated edition of the poem preserves and extends that legacy to ours.&rdquo; &mdash;Richie Hoffman, Los Angeles Review of Books&ldquo;Fascinating . . . Expansive . . . A compelling appreciation, orientation, and grotto of unexpected facts. . . . Yenser has a light touch: he leaves space for readers to form their own ideas about the poem&rsquo;s concerns, digressions, and connections. [His] references both help one get one&rsquo;s bearings, and help make one aware of the poem&rsquo;s vivid &lsquo;tribute to the convergence of means and meaning&rsquo; . . . An absorbing, lively contribution.&rdquo; &mdash;Calista McRae, The Kenyon Review

"The force of this remarkable memoir derives as much from the insights  it offers into the mind and beliefs of the writer as into those of its  subject." &mdash;Publishers Weekly  "Walter Benjamin [was]  perhaps the most subtle, intuitive, and creative critic of the  age....Since Scholem is himself a great scholar and thinker, since the  intellectual comradeship between the two was so intense for a long time,  the commingling of their thoughts comes to be even more revealing than  the life-facts themselves....An invaluable document about not merely one  but two of the century&rsquo;s most profound minds." &mdash;Kirkus Reviews

Spare, pastoral, intimate, and probing, these musically exacting poems offer arresting insights: “Here’s a world for today: // killing & not dying / fantastically, not lying.” They question, invent, refer, divert, take flying risks. They are fluid, considered, dignified. They celebrate the human eye, mind, and tongue. It is a joy to have them in print.—Olga Broumas

&ldquo;If Tina Fey and David Sedaris had a daughter, she would be Maeve Higgins. (And while I&rsquo;m building the fantasy family of comedy, let&rsquo;s put Nora Ephron somewhere on the family tree.) Higgins&rsquo;s essays cover subjects ranging from what kind of shelter dog she would be to emigrating from Ireland, but a single thread weaves through each one: that elusive feeling of laughing around a big lump in your throat.&rdquo;&mdash;Glamour&#160;(The&#160;Best Books to Read This Summer)&ldquo;Sharp-eyed . . . deeply funny and astute.&rdquo;&mdash;People&#160;(The Best New Books)&ldquo;Hilarious . . .

Higgins&rsquo;s vibe [is] wary but hopeful, clever but earnest. [The] sensibility [that] runs through: deep empathy and genuine curiosity about the American experience of newcomers . . . with more Michael Fassbender jokes, and a bit more self-deprecating humor (stop, Maeve, you&rsquo;re perfect).&rdquo;&mdash;Maris Kreizman,&#160;Vulture&#160;(New Paperbacks You Should Read This August)&ldquo;[A beach read] that is actually beach appropriate.&rdquo;&mdash;New York&#160;Magazine (The Approval Matrix: Brilliant)&ldquo;[An] ingenious collection of essays that examine the personal and the political, offering an incredible outsider&rsquo;s view of America&rsquo;s current cultural climate and its place within the world. . . .&#160;Higgins&rsquo;s insightful and wacky essays will not only make you laugh; you'll also nod in recognition and sigh in solidarity. . . .

Maeve Higgins is funny. So funny you will laugh multiple times while reading each of these essays, replete with uncanny imagery and off-the-wall situations. So funny that, at 31, she was confident enough in her career as an Irish comic to make it in America. Higgins expertly threads important social commentary amid the hilarity.&#160;Maeve in America&#160;is a satisfying essay collection that is as stimulating as it is funny.

She is the true Irish voice of our American generation.&rdquo; &mdash;Amy Schumer&ldquo;Maeve Higgins is brilliant; but her brilliance isn&rsquo;t the braggy, headlight kind that tries to trap her subjects deer-like in a cold, dead glare. Instead, she lights every room she enters with warmth, welcome, and generous rays of sheer funny. And in this book, she illuminates the world.&rdquo;&mdash;John Hodgman, bestselling author of Vacationland &ldquo;Maeve Higgins is easily one of my favorite, most treasured comedic voices. She is one of those rare artists who makes her unique point of view relatable and refreshing, leaving you feeling like you&rsquo;ve been on the same page with her your whole life.&rdquo; &mdash;Kristen Schaal&ldquo;Until space aliens land in America, Maeve Higgins from Ireland is the next best thing. She offers fresh and insightful perspectives from a faraway place on all we take for granted.&rdquo;&mdash;Neil&#160;deGrasse Tyson&ldquo;Maeve Higgins is the funniest writer I know. And Maeve in America is just so smart and joyful. I especially like it when she&rsquo;s unhappy. Because she&rsquo;s very funny about it. Always be unhappy, Maeve!&rdquo; &mdash;Jon Ronson, author of So You&rsquo;ve Been Publicly Shamed &ldquo;This is a really funny, really natural, really gifted writer.&rdquo; &mdash;Kevin Barry, author of Beatlebone and City of Bohane &ldquo;Higgins is rarer than a blessing of unicorns.&#160;.&#160;.&#160;. She is original and relatively calm, her observations are pithy, her wit delicate, her persona oddly alluring and deftly honest.&rdquo; &mdash;The Irish Times

Essays by a Girl from Somewhere Else

Maeve in America

"Again and again, Little Beaver, eager to play with his friends, claims his dam is finished&mdash;but is it? Art and text combine to provide a plot familiar to a great many children. . . . There is a good deal of onomatopoeia and gentle rhyming to provide enjoyment to both a read-aloud audience and beginning readers. . . . There is gentle humor throughout. A bit of natural science combines with a sweet tale of perseverance and camaraderie."&mdash;Kirkus Reviews "How will Little Beaver's parents get him to stay focused and finish his work? Mama and Papa are stern but gentle. . . . The story teaches the benefits of determination and pride in a job well done. The pen and watercolor illustrations are soft and appealing. The characters have realistic traits, such as webbing on the beaver&rsquo;s hind feet and details of the feathers on the bird. The main characters are expressive and endearing.&#160; Young children will enjoy the onomatopoeia that repeats throughout the book. This is a fun read-aloud that also teaches and reinforces an important lesson."&mdash;School Library Journal
