The hour approaches midnight. Terrorism, war, and financial collapse face America. Politics-as-usual has failed. The end of the American century? The end of the human epoch? A small band of men and women choose to resist. Their weapon is what humanity has used successfully for everything else; everything, that is, but its own behavior. Science. Can they win? Or have Americans become addicted to a lethal poison concocted of phony promises with simple solutions, packaged in advertisements with fast-moving visuals and witty one-liners, and peddled by charismatic personalities? In this provocative and challenging, first-of-its-kind, true-to-life story, fiction meets fact. Using a no-holes-barred, in-your-face style, its internationally recognized author weaves wry observations into scientific explanations with an unfailing sense of humor. He tells a tale that examines human weaknesses while offering a blueprint for overcoming them. It is a first-of-its-kind novel from the 21st-century biobehavioral orientation. An inspiring, yet all-too-human, tale about a journey to restore the American dream based upon Science, Tradition, and the Constitution.Shipping Notes

What Merwin Thought Represented Him Best
Format: Paperback
If one volume could sum up adequately W.S. Merwin's artistic development and illustrate his place in American literature with some justice, "Migration" does the job. At least as importantly, it gives us the poet's own opinion on the poems for which he might want to be remembered, much as Nathaniel Tarn inspired Pablo Neruda to do in the selection of Neruda's poems that Tarn oversaw. I bought "Migration" at roughly the same time as
and
and cross-referenced his selection from those titles in "Migration" against the whole. While I still have one or two favorites that did not make the cut, I found the choices he made consistently better-inspired and more timeless than the poems that surrounded them (though overall Merwin has remained a consistent and astonishingly fine craftsman throughout his career). For those who want to go further back than Merwin's more recent books for Copper Canyon Press should not be disappointed.

ws merwin's collected poems
Format: Hardcover
it's a hardback and it's in great condition. apparently it's a library book that has been in more than one sale, at one point someone had put a price of fifty cents on it. it's sad that arguably one of the better modern writers did not find a permanent home but that meant a great deal for me. also, i hope the reason the book started its journey wasn't because the library folded but that might explain why the book left the shelves to begin with.

Better than Expected
Format: Paperback
Though the title impied there were new poems in this volume, I found some of my favorites, but
didn't notice any new ones. Never mind, they are wonderful, and I liked this book so much, I purchased
a copy for a friend and published poet, who's poet in the schools, Grace Grafton, who is familiar with
Merwin's writing. That made both of us happy.
On a practical level, it is easier to schlep a single volume with you than three of four,when what you
want is 'La crême de la crême.'
Makes a welcome addition to any collection, a great gift to introduce Merwin, and a pleasure to read
the smooth, ariculate poetry that is food for the soul.
