Literary License: Yeats & Ireland
Irish poet William Butler Yeats died in 1939 and his position in Irish letters and national renewal have been often debated, including by those closest to him. Perhaps no one knew his soul better than Maud Gonne, Irish nationalist and Yeats life-long love and muse. Though they never married and disagreed famously on the path to Irish independence and national cultural fulfillment, they reconciledâŠ
Literary License: Frank OâHaraâs âHeartâ
In my imagining, itâs another breezy day in the city. Frankâs just thinking about life through the simple, run-of-the-mill things we all do . . . But, itâs Frank OâHara and his Manhattan and friends of 1953. Feel the immediacy â both then and now. Living is just trying to make sense of all that hits us. But itâs now â a blink of an eye flittering like fading light and gone. Listen to FrankâsâŠ
What have we wrought?
How frustrating it is to realize that our childhood was during the peak of American power and respect, and our later years are spent watching it crumble around our children through the carelessness, hubris, and ignorance of our peers and leaders. There may still be time to right the ship of state, but we have already tossed aside so much . . . including the goodwill of the world gained overâŠ
Literary License: Emily Nemensâ Reflections on Passing Parades
The Oxford American, available online, is the type of southern literary publication that has long been dear to my heart. Something about its stories and poems remind me of long, steamy summers in southern North Carolina, where I grew up, the days stretching endlessly through cool mornings and hot afternoons. Life seemed to my childâs mind unchanging as surrounded by generations of family IâŠ

Literary License: Memories and a Fatherâs Library
A lyrical memory of the writerâs father and his library, and how his love of books and the worlds they give us provide us with so much more. Iâll let the author, Max Ross, give his own personal introduction to that world. The Vanishing Library: Timothy Elyâs Odd Little Book from Outer Space by Max Ross âLate in the week I got an email from one of my book dealers. He was at a fair in New YorkâŠ

Literary License: Richard Kinneyâs Incantatory Ghazal - âYour Nameâ
Ghazals are a deceptively simple poetic form that permits incredible beauty and rhythm, though lesser ghazals run the risk of inept forced repetition. The form opens with a rhyming couplet that sets the pattern repeated in the second line of each succeeding couplet. It offers wondrous opportunity for the discerning poet. True ghazals in the hands of accomplished writers can â through the form asâŠ
During the last rise of fascism, and authoritarianism, whether of the âleftâ or ârightâ, Ernest Hemingway penned a short note for Esquire Magazine in 1935. In it, he distilled the rotting experience of war from his own Italian front time as an ambulance driver at the front into the clear-eyed cynicism about war. As he wrote elsewhere, war is always a crime. And the criminal who starts one will beâŠ
The U.S. Adrift - There Are Consequences for Destroying Alliances
I am including the following article by Anne Applebaum from The Atlantic below because the obvious consequences of Trumpâs ignorant âstatecraftâ need to be understood. Now we are seeing the first direct consequences of Trumpâs effort to destroy the alliances that have prevented global wars and supported freer trade and coordination to the general benefit (though surely its not without itsâŠ
