Franz Wright speaks to me, perhaps more so than any other modern poet, and he does so with an elegant, minimalistic style. He has a keen way of recognizing the common, often mundane aspects of our existence. Yet, when he captures them on paper and puts his characteristic spin on them, it's a thing of beauty. Not to mention, Wright has lived. I mean really lived. This is an artist who has ...             On the Loose26 reviews Renny Russell, Terry Russell Gibbs Smith Publishers, 2001 LOOKING BEYOND THE RISE What a treasure to find that On The Loose is still around.

This is another marvelous contribution. Ms. Dieguez expertly recreates the south just after the turn of the 20th century.

This book is a marvelous exploration of love, desire, sisterhood, societal ...             Heart of the Home: Notes From a Vineyard Kitchen9 reviews Susan Branch Little, Brown and Company, 1986 Simply Wonderful!
