The Maverick Room: Poems
With its defiance for any one tradition or voice, Thomas Sayers Ellis's debut becomes a powerful argument against monotony
" A dream. A democracy. A savage liberty.
" And yet another anthem and yet another heaven
"and yet another party wants you.
" Wants you wants you wants you.
--from "Groovallegiance"
In one poem, Thomas Sayers Ellis prognosticates, "Pretty soon, the Age of the Talk Show / Will slip on a peel left in the avant- gutter." The result is "The Maverick Room, the testing ground of determination and serendipity, where call-and-response becomes Steinian echo becomes Post-Soul percussive pleasure becomes a bootlegged recording hustled out of a D.C. go-go club.

Londinopolis: Essays in the Cultural and Social History of Early Modern London by Paul Griffiths, ISBN 0719051525
Events such as the Fire of London and the Plague, and historic locations like the Globe Theatre, are part of London's heritage. Yet until recently, the history of the city between 1500 and 1750 has been little studied. During this period, London's population soared from around 50,000 to nearly half a million--the demographic explosion transformed the city to a metropolis. London became a center of new social and sexual identities and a solvent of older, more hierarchical forms of social organization. The essays in this volume cover the themes of polis and the police, gender and sexuality, space and place, and material culture and consumption. Within these themes are thieves, prostitutes, litigious wives, the poor, disease, "great quantities of gooseberry pye," and the taxing question of fresh water.
