We all know someone, or maybe we are that someone, who has been affected by cancer.Close Up: Poems on Cancer, Grief, Hope and Healing is a new collection of poetry that recognizes the depth of human spirit in the face of some of life's greatest hardships. This sequence of poetry features voices of those who have experienced, or who are currently experiencing, cancer. Alongside these are contributions from carers, friends and family, health professionals, and those who offer their support from afar. Many of these poems are personal reflections of cancer and its unrelenting challenges, while others instead offer intimate views on illness, loss, life and love. At its most heart-breaking, this collection features words written in memory of those no longer with us. This anthology serves as a medium for exploring the complexities of grief, while also celebrating life and survival - and ultimately bringing together a chorus of voices joined in support and understanding. Proceeds from sales of this book will be directed towards charities in aid of cancer research and support.

Movies that mattered : more reviews from a transformative decade / by Kehr, Dave,author.(CARDINAL)354877; Rosenbaum, Jonathan,1943-writer of foreword.(CARDINAL)354876(CARDINAL)829021;
Dave Kehr's writing about film has garnered high praise from both readers and fellow critics. Among his admirers are some of his most influential contemporaries. Roger Ebert called Kehr "one of the most gifted film critics in America." James Naremore thought he was "one of the best writers on film the country as a whole has ever produced." But aside from remarkably detailed but brief capsule reviews and top-ten lists, you won't find much of Kehr's work on the Internet, and many of the longer and more nuanced essays for which he is best known have not yet been published in book form. With When Movies Mattered, readers welcomed the first collection of Kehr's criticism, written during his time at the Chicago Reader. Movies That Mattered is its sequel, with fifty more reviews and essays drawn from the archives of both the Chicago Reader and Chicago magazine from 1974 to 1986. As with When Movies Mattered, the majority of the reviews offer in-depth analyses of individual films that are among Kehr's favorites, from a thoughtful discussion of the sobering Holocaust documentary Shoah to an irresistible celebration of the raucous comedy Used Cars. But fans of Kehr's work will be just as taken by his dissections of critically acclaimed films he found disappointing, including The Shining, Apocalypse Now, and Raiders of the Lost Ark. Whether you're a long-time reader or just discovering Dave Kehr, the insights in Movies That Mattered will enhance your appreciation of the movies you already love--and may even make you think twice about one or two you hated.
