He is equally\u003cbr\u003ecomfortable ruminating on his own experiences or entering the mind of Sam Melville, a radical\u003cbr\u003ebomber from the 1960s, killed in the uprising at Attica. Alert to the music of the colloquial and\u003cbr\u003ethe subtle magic of the everyday, Cohen's poems are - like the Chet Baker songs he admires -\u003cbr\u003ewry, rueful, and enchanting.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003eSam Magavern\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, author, \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003ePrimo Levi's Universe, \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eOvid's Creek, \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eNoah's Ark\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eCoffee for Meg\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e is a luminous collection brimming with lyrical language, vivid imagery, and sharp insight. It is both an elegy to the past and a reflection on the fragility of the present. Cohen's poems paint a world filled with ghosts and fragments of memory, revealing how the past shapes the present, often in moments we barely notice at the time, when fleeting experiences take on myth-like qualities.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003eAdele Evershed\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, author, \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eTurbulence in Small Places, A History of Hand Thrown Walls\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 56\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.12 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 05, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47868549300445,"sku":"9798901467046","price":29.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/HMmyw7zDw9798901467046.webp?v=1777633023","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/coffee-for-meg-paperback","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
