Sobre IBD

In this companion to The Nightingale’s Stone, Ada Ludenow explores the power of relationships to make and unmake us by using language itself as a fundamental binding force to use or misuse for gain or at our own peril. What emerges is one woman’s portrait of the world as an ambivalent, often hostile place, made livable by our ability to perceive the small events of beauty that overcome us in unexpected ways.With color illustrations of each poem, Small Events offers timeless meditations on how we make meaning of love, hatred, memory, and being human. Readers of The Nightingale’s Stone will find a further expansion of that work’s themes and new readers will find a philosophically poetic voice inviting them to enter the plural reality of the Hagengard.

    David Mecklenburg
    Between two hills was a decrepit hall. Of what manner of architecture had gone into its spirit and flesh, I could not tell. The profuse and overgrown garden around it--the wild apple trees that climbed and fought with one another--obscured its age and look. It was as if each step changed the hall, and the lengthening shadows hinted at its great age, a history spoken in a forgot...

  • Hyperborea

    Hyperborea was the 'Land beyond the North Wind' for the Ancient Greeks. Was it real to them and does that matter? Our mythology often shapes our reality despite the assumption that only the reserve is true.For Ada Ludenow, Hyperborea is the land beyond human company--a realm sometimes called solitude and sometimes called loneliness. Like most places--both real and imagined, bot...

Recalling Woolf’s The Waves (and many other classic texts of re-wandering), each short chapter is a poetic and philosophical adventure on the seas of myth and language as we sail through Sisyphean tasks and picnics on...
