In A Symphony in Twilight, an anthology, Forester uses free verse, a style of poetry that does not conform to established rules of meter or rhyme to create a flowing, conversational tone with listeners. Portraying a wide range experiences, he writes about the sea, the farm, the cities, and of the experiences of real people. While not overtly transcendental, Forester writes about the interconnectedness of all life and the divinity in each individual.

The Fourth Step is a huge literary project recorded to the music of more than forty artists and fifty-one instrumental tracks spanning over five and a half hours. Prose, poetical prose and lyrics combine in an unusual way to tell a story of love that bridges mystical experience and human affection. The borders of love blur, stretch and expand, or contract and enclose, freeing us or enslaving us. They extend from boundless and selfless to personal and narrow, from bliss to sorrow, from joy to pain. They can make us powerful or powerless, limit us or make us limitless.

De comum, estes dois ensaios têm o mesmo objeto: a arte. Em "Estética e eletricidade", o alvo do autor são os críticos das artes plásticas, cujo conhecimento de ciência acaba por turvar a adequada avaliação das obras. Já em "Flaubert", o autor francês é que está na mira da crítica dura – incomum – à sua obra. Teria de fato autor do célebre "Madame Bovary" desmerecido o prestígio que alcançou?

Dois ensaios em que Tristão de Alencar de Araripe Júnior explora personagens públicas de seu tempo. Em "O fetiche", a Rainha Vitória está no centro de seus comentários (críticos), ao tempo em que ela celebrava seu jubileu de ouro. "Viagens de Gulliver", por sua vez, nada fala da obra de Johnattan Swift, mas a obra clássica que empresta seu título ao ensaio serve como metáfora para enaltecer a figura do pedagogo Carlos Jansen, que valorizava a literatura infanto-juvenil entre os jovens estudantes brasileiros do final do século XIX.

"Um livro como o que agora oferece o poeta Alberto de Oliveira (...) não é um vômito de histerismo orgiático; esse livro é um perfume" – eis o tom deste ensaio do crítico Araripe Jr. sobre livro "Versos e rimas", de seu contemporâneo Alberto de Oliveira, marcado pelo erotismo e pela musicalidade de seus versos. E música é justamente o tema do segundo ensaio aqui reunido, onde o autor questiona a importância dada a esse gênero artístico: "A baqueta de um maestro vale hoje mais do que um cetro."

Eliot, Carl Sandburg, Sylvia Plath, Maya Angelou, and others are all evident influences on Roop’s own work.

Nella sua ultima raccolta, Raccolto diurno, Erri De Luca addomestica le parole, che appaiono nelle sue mani come animali selvatici, solo per poco disposti a farsi ammansire. Le parole di questo artigiano della letteratura, infatti, sono sempre pronte a ribellarsi, a stringersi in forma di pugno, a mandare scintille. Le poesie di De Luca a volte contengono racconti, storie, volti come se fossero narrazioni. Ma sono anche altro: per esempio odi minime agli elementi, come nel miglior Neruda; sono epigrafi per chi non c’è più e nostalgie di un futuro da scrivere.

Part one of the continuing series entitled Painted Histories indexes leading figures in two significant phases of poetic expression in English literature: the Elizabethans, including William Shakespeare, John Webster and Sir Philip Sidney to the Romantic movement of the early 19th century: Lord Byron, John Keats, Percy Bysshe Shelley and Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

In Sanguine, the writer becomes an artisan of emotions, sculpting verses that evoke the depth of the supernatant human condition. The inked revelations, an offering to the listener, invite them to traverse the landscapes of heartache and ecstasy painted in hues of spirited crimson.

And so, in the quiet sanctum of creativity, where the union of pen and emotion transpires, the act of Sanguine becomes a ritual—a communion between the writer, words, and the eager heart of the listener, all bound together in the sacred art of storytelling.
