SUMMARY:Nebraska Author - Mike Theiler - Nikon Road
DESCRIPTION:Congratulations to Arch.Hall.Group Reunion 2025!\nOne of your classmates can’t be there but we know you wish he were!\nCopies can be ordered at 402 781 0459 or info@francieandfinch.com\n \nMike takes us on a photographic journey around the world from the frontlines\, the sidelines\, the VIP sections and inside the ropes…..a Forest Gump experience\, witnessing history\, rubbing elbows with the most famous names and datelines in the world.  His new book\, Nikon Road takes us on a photographic journey around the world from 1971-2021. Magical places visited include the Forbidden City\, Tibet and the Yangtze River.  China was negotiating the future of British Hong Kong.  Indira Ghandi was assassinated in Delhi\,  Vietnam celebrated the 10th anniversary of the fall of Saigon.  President Reagan\, the Love Boat and Mickey Mouse came calling to China.  Mike experienced and photographed the Moscow Olympics\, Pope John Paul II and the Charles and Diana’s wedding in London\, and their honeymoon in Egypt.\nOn January 6th\, 2021\, Mike was at our country’s capitol –  “All my professionalism from 50 years of photography kind of takes over. I started shooting\, knowing deep down that you can’t make a bad picture in a situation like that. There were maybe 20 of the rioters in the hallway and only a handful of police trying to restrain them. That’s when I saw that the guy with a Confederate flag had kind of moved off by himself. I’m thinking in the context of — we’re in this hallowed hallway\, with the gilded framed paintings on the wall\, the bust\, the kind of thing that speaks to anyone who has ever been to the Capitol\, and I kind of isolated him with that in the background.”\nJ\nSigned copies can be ordered at 402 781 0459 or info@francieandfinch.com\nFrancie & Finch Bookshop\n130 S. 13th St\nLincoln\, NE 68508\n  \n  \n\n

SUMMARY:Visiting Poet - John Brehm - The Poetry of Grief\, Gratitude and Reverence
DESCRIPTION:Poet and editor of the new anthology The Poetry of Grief\, Gratitude and Reverence\, John Brehm\, will be visiting Francie & Finch on Friday\, April 25th!\nBuy your copy of the book HERE! \nAbout the Book:\nA new anthology from the editor of the bestselling Poetry of Impermanence\, Mindfulness\, and Joy. Explorations on a journey through the darkest and brightest moments of our lives\, the poems gathered here are explorations of loss\, of thanksgiving\, of transformation. Some show a path forward and others simply acknowledge and empathize with where we are\, but all are celebrations of poetry’s ability to express what seemed otherwise inexpressible\, to touch deep inside our hearts—and also pull ourselves out of our selves and into greater connection with the world around us. \nIncludes poems by\nRainer Maria Rilke\, Robert Frost\, Elizabeth Bishop\, Czeslaw Milosz\, Seamus Heaney\, Billy Collins\, Joy Harjo\, Danusha Lameris\, Ada Limon\, Kevin Young\, Arthur Sze\, Ellen Bass\, Li Young-Lee\, Natasha Tretheway\, and many more. \nThe editor also includes an essay on appreciative attention and links to guided meditations for select poems\, offering us a chance to have an even deeper experience of reflection. \nAbout the Author:\nJohn Brehm was born and raised in Lincoln\, Nebraska and educated at the University of Nebraska and Cornell University. He is the author of four books of poetry\, Sea of Faith\, Help Is on the Way\, No Day at the Beach\, and Dharma Talk. He has also published a collection of essays\, The Dharma of Poetry\, which is a companion to his acclaimed anthology\, The Poetry of Impermanence\, Mindfulness\, and Joy. His poems have appeared in Poetry\, Ploughshares\, The Gettysburg Review\, The Sun\, The Southern Review\, Plume\, New Ohio Review\, The Writer’s Almanac\, The Best American Poetry\, The Norton Introduction to Literature\, and many other journals and anthologies. His most recent book is a new anthology\, The Poetry of Grief\, Gratitude\, and Reverence (Wisdom Publications\, 2023). \nTo learn more about John visit his website HERE! \nPraise for the Anthology:\n“John Brehm weaves together timeless wisdom and a deep poetic sensibility.”—Joseph Goldstein\, author of Mindfulness: A Practical Guide to Awakening \n“This beautiful and poignant poetry will reach places in your mind and heart that you didn’t know existed. Your life will be enriched once you’ve cracked open its pages and drunk from its words of beauty and anguish.”— Joanne Cacciatore\, PhD\, author of Bearing the Unbearable\, Grieving Is Loving\, and Bearing the Unbearable: A Guided Journal for Grieving \n“It has been said that of all gateways to the deep mystery that is our true home\, none is so immediate and potent as grief. Grief itself is wisdom\, calling us back to who we really are. The braiding of fine\, moving\, and readable poems gathered in this beautiful new anthology on grief and its sisters—gratitude and reverence—shows us clearly why. Let this wonderful collection\, wisely conceived and beautifully executed\, open up whatever needs to be opened\, and lead us all back to the true home we’ve long been seeking. This is a book to treasure.”— Henry Shukman\, author of Original Love and One Blade of Grass
