Produktbeschreibung
In this collection the author, "Frank Romano throws himself headlong-physically and spiritually-into the world. In Crossing Over, Romano generously extends himself through language to make his experiences our own." Martha Witt, Author of Broken As Things Are Professor of Creative Writing at William Paterson University. "Frank Romano has the unusual poetic ability to focus on the commonplace, such as his "Squirrel" piece, and then to show how it radiates some of the deepest of life's themes. His other new poem, "Bread and Gladiators" is both pungent and melodic, but hardly subdued. Romano targets us with some of the most provocative of thoughts, thought meant to jar us out of our dullest complacency. Read him at your risk." Alan Baxter, Professor at Ramapo College in New Jersey, author of A Second of Eternity and What Wives Don't Know, and award winning filmmaker. "This collection of poetry by the author of Storm over Morocco reveals a young and a mature man's inner journey as he travels from California to Paris and the Mediterranean, discovering Italian and French identities. Particularly moving are the poems "Ma Fille" and "Held you", both exploring the poet's relations to his children." Mary Ann Frese, Professor Emerita, Comparative Literature, North Carolina State University
