Produktinformationen zu „Into the Fire: A Poet's Journey through Hell's Kitchen (ePub)“

Into The Fire: A Poet's Journey takes place in the rough-and-tumble Hell's Kitchen neighborhood on Manhattan's West Side. By 1980, both the arts scene and New York neighborhoods are on the verge of change. The author's life in the arts weaves in and out of the neighborhood's narratives. She must make a choice between two possible lives.

The Poetry Festival at St. Clement's featured many well-known poets of the 1970s and 80s as well as up-and-coming and marginalized poets. St. Clement's Church has a storied history in the arts, beginning with the American Place Theater in the 1960s to the present day. Cameo appearances in this memoir are made by Robert Altman, Amiri Baraka, Daniel Berrigan, Karen Black, Raymond Carver, Cher, Abbie Hoffman, Spalding Gray, and Al Pacino. Erick Hawkins, June Anderson, and Daniel Nagrin dance through.

Poets and writers include Carol Bergé, Ted Berrigan, Enid Dame, Cornelius Eady, Allen Ginsberg, Daniella Gioseffi, Barbara Holland, Bob Holman, Richard Howard, Maurice Kenny, Eve Merriam, Robin Morgan, Sharon Olds, Alicia Ostriker, Alice Notley, William Packard, Robert Peters, Rochelle Ratner, Grace Shulman, and Kurt Vonnegut.

The author discovers the arts program and the church are gateways to a vibrant community. She becomes more involved with local civic groups and begins to find her place in the world. Seeking poetry, she finds purpose.

Autoren-Porträt von Mary Clark
Mary Clark spent her formative years in Florida where she was infused with awe and respect for the natural world. She was also aware of the lives of migrant workers, segregation, and the beginning of the Civil Rights Movement. She graduated from Rutgers-Newark College of Arts and Sciences. In 1975, she moved to New York City and worked in the arts programs of St. Clement's Church in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood. For many years she worked for community organizations and founded a community newspaper.

She is the author of Tally: An Intuitive Life (All Things That Matter Press); Community: Journal of Power Politics and Democracy in Hell's Kitchen; Into The Fire: A Poet's Journey through Hell's Kitchen; the poetry novel, Children of Light (Ten Penny Players' BardPress), and Covenant: Growing Up in Florida's Lost Paradise. In her latest novel, Passages, a young aspiring writer explores sex, gender, fame, poverty, and love in 1970s New York City.
