The World in Us
IN RECENT TIMES POETRY HAS ENJOYED an unprecedented popularity both within the literary mainstream and the culture at large. It has now assumed a previously unimagined active role in the public consciousness and the developing culture -- a role that is particularly exemplified by the dynamic, burgeoning world of queer poetry.

In the first substantial collection of gay and lesbian poetry in over a decade, editors Georgiou and Lassell present significant work by forty-six women and men -- all living, working poets -- at the height of their creative powers. With selections from major, established poets (Marilyn Hacker, J. D. McClatchy, Olga Broumas, and Mark Doty, among many others) to emerging artists (Letta Neely, Justin Chin, Mark Wunderlich, Regie Cabico, and more), The World in Us is poetry with its roots in the active voice.

As the editors proclaim in the introduction, "The poets of The World in Us are shaping their lives and the lives of others with words; their collective modus operandi is to affect everyone who comes in contact with them as if each poem were a new sun that casts each reader an unfamiliar shadow. The strategies are diverse: the poems challenge and shock, they explain and assault, they entertain and amuse. It is strong work from a group of strong individuals. It is work that is not shy about its medium or its content. It is poetry that makes visible the world in us. It is poetry of the necessary word."

Defining rather than definitive, active rather than merely observing, The World in Us is the written word at its most exhilarating and compelling -- necessary bread for the mind.

    Palm/eReader Information:
    Palm/eReader eBooks can be read on your Palm, Pocket PC, Windows or Mac computer. The Palm/eReader can display styled text (italicized, underlined, etc.) and formatting as well as perform functions not found on other Palm OS eBook readers.
    What are the requirements for Palm/eReader?

    You'll need a Palm OS or PocketPC/Windows CE Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), or a Windows or Macintosh desktop (or laptop) PC.

    Palm OS Hardware:

    • PDAs including: Palm III series, V series, VII series, m100 series, m125 series, m500 series; Handspring Visor series; TRG Pro; Sony CLIE; IBM WorkPad.
    • 134KB of free memory for the Palm Reader application, plus sufficient free memory for each book (varies from 200KB to 2MB, depending upon the length of the book).
    • Palm Personal will not work with the Palm Reader. It doesn't have enough memory to handle all of our eBooks and there are some important technical differences in the Palm Personal's operating system that make it a less suitable platform for the Palm Reader.

    Palm OS Software:

    • Palm OS 3.0 or greater.
    • Synchronization software for downloading the Palm Reader and eBooks to your Palm device (e.g., the Palm Desktop software)

    PocketPC/Windows CE Hardware:

    • PocketPC series handhelds
    • 167-260K of free memory for the Palm Reader application, plus sufficient free memory for each book (varies from 200KB to 2MB, depending upon the length of the book)
    • 256KB free program space

    PocketPC/Windows CE Software:

    • PocketPC or PocketPC 2002
    • Synchronization software for downloading the Palm Reader and eBooks to your PocketPC device (e.g., the ActiveSync 3.1 software).

    Windows:

    • Windows 98 / ME / NT 4.0 / 2000 / XP

    Macintosh:

    • Mac OS 8.6 or later, using CarbonLib 1.5 or later/Mac OS X 10.1 or later
    Is it true I can the Palm/eReader is not limited to one format?

    The Palm Reader can read doc files. A doc file is a type of PDA file that ends in either .pdb or .prc. These text files have been specifically packaged for use on a PDA. Doc format is pretty much a standard for PDA documents, and the latest version of the Palm Reader can view them.

    Can I use the Palm/eReader with the new Pocket PC's?

    Yes, the Palm Reader is compatible with the following PocketPCs:

    • Hewlett-Packard Jornada
      420, 430, 430se, 540, 545, 547, 548, 680, 690, 720, and 820
    • Compaq
      iPAQ H3600 series, iPAQ H3100 series and Aero 1500 series
    • Casio
      Cassiopeia E115, E-125 and EM-500 series.
