Bøker av Alan Feldman

What is good fortune? The Golden Coin asks - and answers - this question in poems about youth, conflict, travel, family love, and the joys and fears of getting old. Aboard his sailboat, Feldman draws lessons from the sea about time and history. His gaze is tempered not by nostalgia or longing but by satisfaction and happiness.

"Drop the personal," Alan Feldman's best friend advises. But what else does he have? Feldman takes his title from Zhivago's interpretations of the afterlife: "Your soul, your immortality, your life in others." In a collection where the dead do speak, Feldman's poems are more likely to be about others than about himself.

The first full-length collection in many years by an award-winning poet whose work has appeared in The Atlantic, The New Yorker, The Nation, Poetry, The Kenyon Review, The Threepenny Review, and a host of other journals.

This work offers an understanding of how the Internet can be used effectively by science teachers and students to support inquiry-based teaching and learning. It should be of value to project developers and curriculum writers in educational technology and university faculty.
