   Extractions: A B C D ... Scholars Index Made With Words by May Swenson , Gardner McFall (Editor) May Swenson (1913-1989) has long been a personal favorite of mine. Much of her work is difficult to find, or out of print. Gardner McFall, a poet herself,has done a wonderful job of editing the prose, reviews, introductions and the correspondence between Elizabeth Bishop(1913-1979) and May Swenson, although there is much to be found in the St. Louis's, Washington University Archives, where the bulk of May's papers are housed,this is a generous selection. I am hoping that the McFall book will set May's publishers to consider a "Complete Works" of the wonderful May Swenson. McFall, however, is to be applauded for her rounding up and editing of these important prose selections. The book, part of the prestigious "Poets on Poetry"series from the University of Michigan Press, is a gift to both fans and scholars alike. Anonymous Review

Located on east Fifth North Street in Logan, Utah, just below College Hill, the deep lot always had a hint of wildness. Not visible from the street were the overgrown ditch banks, the hives where her father kept bees, the thick tangle of raspberry bushes, the hollyhocks, the wild patches of chamomile, and the orchard of fruit trees in the back lot. Passersby saw the neat brick home her father built, the shade trees, and at a discreet distance behind the main house, a frame home containing apartments that her father later constructed to rent to college students.

This selection was bred from a cross of E.S. 2-3-17 x Kay Gray. However, as a wine grape, it will never be confused with Kay Gray. Berries average around 3 g and clusters are small to medium, conical, somewhat compact, and average 105 g (range 70-130 g). In five years of trials, the wine from Louise Swenson has been outstanding for its quality and consistency from year to year. The wine is without any negative hybrid characteristics, and has a typical delicate aroma of flowers and honey. This wine's only significant fault is that it is rather light in body. Blending with a variety such as Prairie Star makes it a more complete wine. Louise Swenson rarely exceeds 20 Brix, even if left to hang past midseason. Acidity is moderate and needs no reduction. Observed at many sites around south-central Minnesota, this variety has shown little or no winter injury even in the most severe (-40 o F) winters.

    Extractions: Feb. 5, 2002 Carl Swenson may not have the commercial fame of Bo Jackson, but he does subscribe to Jackson's two-sport regiment. U.S Cross Country 2002 Olympian, Swenson, 27 spends his summers burning up the pro mountain bike racing circuit. "I'm definitely a cross country skier first and a mountain biker second," said the 1994 XC Olympian. "Back when I started racing, mountain biking wasn't even a blip on the radar." A long time road biker, Swenson switched his focus after older brother Pete convinced him to check out riding his bike on dirt. A few years later Swenson found himself hitting mountain bike races every weekend from the middle of March until the end of September. Then it's only a few weeks of rest before he's back on the snow in preparation for a season of World Cup cross county skiing. "There is a line between the two that I don't cross," said the Boulder, Colo. resident. "In the winter I focus on skiing and in the summer I focus on biking, the two never over lap. It's definitely not the most conventional method of training for either sport, but it's worked so far and I enjoy them both so much that I couldn't break up with either one." After two years as the captain of the Dartmouth University cross country ski team, Swenson make his made his Olympic debut in 1994 at the Lillehammer Olympic Games. It was the first international competition of his young career. Eight years later and four World Championships in the hole (three for skiing, one for biking) and Swenson is skiing the best of his career.

    Extractions: Swenson, May (1913-1989) Born in Logan, Utah, on May 28, 1913, May Swenson became one of America's most inventive and incisive poets. English was actually her second language since Swedish was spoken in her childhood home. Beginning in 1954, she published ten collections of poetry during her lifetime and one book of translations of the poems of Swedish poet Tomas Transtromer. These include works such as Another Animal To Mix With Time Iconographs New And Selected Things Taking Place (1978), and In Other Words (1987). Swenson died in Ocean View, Delaware, on December 4, 1989. Sponsor Message. Swenson's work is wide and varied. Many of her poems delight in the natural world. Others incorporate scientific research, particularly that having to do with space exploration. Others root themselves in love and eroticism, especially lesbian sexuality. Many of her love poems were published as a single collection in 1991 as The Love Poems of May Swenson Nature and sexuality are not separate categories in her work; to be a part of Nature, as we all are, joins us to a common sexual energy. Her strongest love poems, such as "Fireflies," "Dark Wild Honey," and "Wednesday at The Waldorf," rely on Nature imagery for much of their vitality and beauty.

    Extractions: Genre Collection (Poems) (240 pp.) Poem (240 pp.) Keywords Body Self-Image Death and Dying Nature Summary Swenson's poems about the body and death express the essential mystery of human experience and of observing the cycles of the natural world. In "Question" she wonders in metaphor about what will become of the Self after death, "when Body my good / bright dog is dead." In "Death, Great Smoothener" Swenson notices the odd roles that the personified death seems to play. In "Feel Me" the poet ponders the curious last words of her dying father, suspecting a considerable indictment of the living by the dying. In "Death Invited" she details the gruesome ending of a bullfight, with death personified by the bull, dragged from the ring only to be replaced by another: "Here comes trotting, snorting death / let loose again." Commentary Swenson's gift is to observe and catalog accurately while stretching possible meanings to a higher imaginative level. She is therefore both abstract and concrete at once. A vision akin to William Blake's is mixed with a homely vernacular diction like Robert Frost's or perhaps Roethke's, so that even the darker subjects are luminous with Swenson's unusual or new perspectives.
