Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - In \*Death Rattle, \* poet April Bulmer weaves a mythic and haunting portrait of a woman healer confronting plague in a primordial world. Through the rhythmic pulse of lyrical verse, Bulmer channels the voice of a matriarch whose rituals, rooted in the sacred body and natural world, seek to fend off a creeping sickness that grips her people.This deeply feminine narrative unfolds in a time before doctrine, where faith flows through poultices, wild language, and sacred offerings to the Great Mother. The poems explore love, grief, and survival as the protagonist heals with her own milk, mourns through ancestral rites, and communes with animal spirits who guide her in dreams. Her power is ancient, intuitive, and defiant-shaped by the wind, the earth, and her own flesh.As her husband and daughter fall ill, and the landscape decays around them, she battles the invisible demons of disease with spiritual tenacity. Even in death, her voice remains-a spectral presence that blesses, warns, and endures.Bulmer's background in theology and Indigenous studies infuses the work with symbolic weight and respect, though the story remains a fictional meditation. \*Death Rattle\* is both elegy and invocation-a poetic reckoning with mortality, ancestry, and the divine feminine. It is visceral, spiritual, and unforgettable.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Inventive and precocious, Anne-g, ten, and Stellar, seven, aided by an unstable apparition they call the Child, bring their light and love to a search for truths buried by devastating family secrets. They are aided further by stories they decipher, given it seems, from the Child and through turbulent forces within the Canadian Shield's West Hawk Lake where they live. Though the adults around them dismiss their insight, it lives fiercely within them. Unshaken in their resolve, they discover, to their peril, the ongoing menace embodied in Third Reich fantasies conceived as 'Hitler's children' the ideal Aryan, the dirty Jewish, and the bred Lebensborn child. This fascist plague contaminates their attempt to recover their 'real mother,' the one they believe stolen by 'the nazi' who seems to haunt the woods. Fearful yet resilient, unhomed yet undaunted, they dedicate themselves to repairing family bonds broken by darknesses they struggle to comprehend but are compelled to confront. The Woman Who Swallowed West Hawk Lake reveals the truth-telling courage of children. Might its transformative energy, even in the midst of loss, awaken anew our devotion to the rights of children and the eradication of the evil that can destroy their lives.…

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Night Cream and Dreams is an intimate and haunting collection of poems drawn from the fertile, unsettling terrain of dreams. In these pages, April Bulmer invites readers into a nocturnal world where memory, spirituality, grief, desire, and healing surface in vivid, often startling images. Each poem stands alone, yet together they form a lyrical constellation-moments of waking life braided with dream logic, ritual, and reflection.Bulmer writes with clarity and emotional precision. Her poems move effortlessly between the ordinary and the sacred: a cup of coffee becomes communion, a dying dog becomes a divine guardian, a hotel room turns into a space of prayer and reckoning. Themes of family, illness, faith, femininity, and mental health recur throughout the collection, handled with both tenderness and unflinching honesty. The divine feminine, ancestral voices, and prophetic dreams appear not as abstractions, but as lived, bodily experiences.The language is spare yet evocative. Images linger. Emotions resonate long after the page is turned. Readers encounter moments of vulnerability, dark humour, spiritual struggle, and quiet grace, often within the same poem. The accompanying visual artwork deepens the dreamlike atmosphere, reinforcing the sense that this book is meant to be experienced slowly, intuitively, and reflectively.Night Cream and Dreams will appeal to readers of contemporary poetry who are drawn to introspective, spiritually curious work. It is a book for those who listen closely to their inner lives, who believe dreams carry meaning, and who find solace-and truth-in poetry that dares to look inward.…
