James Richardson

By the Numbers (Lannan Literary Selections)

500 aphorisms. Our best-seller. In Boston Review, Brenda O'Shaughnessy wrote, “Readers will be obsessed by this book; they will memorize passages, give copies to friends, proselytize. That's because Vectors so generously provides the best that poetry can offer. It is a masterpiece of practicality, beauty, and solace.”

Aphorisms & Ten-second Essays

Vectors

This volume contains Richardson’s collection, Interglacial, as well as a generous retrospective of his previous five, several of which have been out of print for years. Although his diction and musical ear are clearly contemporary and American, Richardson’s sensibility is both lyric—in the classical sense—and philosophical, bringing to mind poets as dissimilar as Wallace Stevens and the Romantics. He has been praised for his fierce and probing intelligence, his subtle and formally tensile music, and his inventive syntax—which Thomas Lux has described as “a gorgeous surge and pull in his sentences.”

New and Selected Poems & Aphorisms

Interglacial

National Book Award finalist James Richardson’s new collection—his eighth—is his darkest, brightest, and most moving. From its breathtaking invocation to its final whispered address, During is somber, witty, curious, and exhilarated. An extended meditation on the durability of happiness and beauty, During includes more of Richardson’s profound aphorisms alongside lyric poems that wonder at this unfailingly surprising world.

During

Classic meets contemporary in James Richardson’s ninth collection. Writers from Bashō to Hardy, from Merwin to Porchia, inspire meditations on everything from artichokes to cosmology that somehow morph into fables of limitation and desire. This “new poetry made the old way” takes seriously the task of lightening and illuminating our experience, and especially, of distilling it. As Richardson writes, “The road not taken also would have gotten me home.” More than sixty poems of ten lines or fewer, and two sequences of Richardson’s trademark aphorisms and “ten-second essays,” are set alongside surging lyric meditations and odes. For Now celebrates nows of every length, from the sweep of cosmic evolution, to the span of a life, to the glint of dew on a cold shovel.

Travels in Morocco

In Two Volumes

Travels in Morocco in two volumes is a travel narrative written by American missionary and explorer James Richardson, and published by his wife after he lost his life at Bornou, in Central Africa. Richardson traveled to Africa as a missionary, but also undertook several other tasks in order to understand the condition of the strange and remarkable races of men who inhabit that part of the world. His goal was to introduce them with a legitimate commerce, with a view to destroy slave trade, and thus pave the way for the spreading of Christianity among a benighted people. Also he used every opportunity of studying the geography of the country, and of gaining an insight into the manners, customs, prejudices, and sentiments of its inhabitants.

A Series of Graduated Lessons and Exercises in Malagasy as Spoken by the Hovas : Parts I., II.

Malagasy for Beginners:

The V W Golf was planned to be a worthy successor to the venerable Beetle, a move that required dynamic thinking and a clean drawing board if Volkswagen was to continue to hold its position as one of the top automobile manufacturers. Where the Golf differed from the crowd was its distinctive body design. for here was the world's first hatchback. When Volkswagen launched the Golf GTI, over thirty years ago, it could hardly have known the impact its compact and sporty model would have on the car-buying public. Through an uncertain birth to its class-topping iconic status of today, rarely does a new model of car make a whole new market segment for itself but the Golf was the original hot hatch, a car that others would copy but seldom equal.
