Patricia Frech

Writers, Like Hats

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Writers, Like Hats begins with an ode and ends with a philosophical message from one of my students; in between is a variety of genres for enjoyment and meditation. Three sections explore the natural world, the world outside, and the world inside. In the appendix, readers find instructions for writing riddles, sonnets, and celebrations of self, as well as samples from students. I invite you to enjoy the music and magic of poetry that lifts us to new heights in Writers, Like Hats."Trish Frech's untrammeled poetic style opens to the reader her deep attachments to Nature, her concerns for the world and its people, and her insights into her own Life. But it is more than that: many readers will savor the vivid images, carefully turned phrases, and playfulness of her poetry. Teachers of poetry, moreover, will find not only rich material to share with students but in the Appendix four ready to use methods (with student samples) for creating poetry itself. Frech's insights into her on life's arc and into momentous questions of our times are offset and [made pleasurable] by her simplicity of phrase, colorful wording, and frequent evocation of Nature."Review of the final manuscript from Gordon B. Donaldson, Jr., Professor Emeritus at the University of Maine.

Autorenporträt

We introduce you to Patricia (Trish) Frech, who has published a collection of poetry that transforms moments of nature or events into philosophic or iconic scenes taking the reader on musical or natural journeys. Patricia recently retired from teaching to complete this work; her role as a teacher, professor and lover of nature is the backdrop of her prosaic, musical, and philosophic eye as seen through various genres such as odes, riddles, songs, sonnets and iconic lyrical poetry. Trish transforms silence into revelations of human nature. Her backdrop is one of literary and personal journeys: a teacher in secondary and college classrooms; a traveler from her home town in Virginia, to a cultural education in Hawaii; teaching in private and public schools in Maine, Hawaii, and Virginia, and an immersion of British schools on a sabbatical in England. You will want to travel with her as her book covers three arenas and ends with an appendix that is both instructional and personal as she lays out some protocols for students or teachers to use in the classroom. Writers, Like Hats opens with an ode and ends with students' profound view for the future.
