"In an era when chapbooks or slim poetry volumes (often thematically or stylistically focused) are a frequent standard, Shirley Geok-lin Lim's new book is an audaciously monumental compilation. In her twelfth poetry collection (added to a library shelf's worth of novels, a memoir, short stories, critical studies, edited anthologies, and special journal issues), we encounter a writer's writer in the truest sense of those words. The word is Lim's purchase on the world, and we readers are blessed for her company, observations, intellect, insight, love, and wisdom as our literary companion and guide."-From the preface by Lauri Scheyer
The year is 1975. They came with their sirens, their cameras, and their incessant questions. The voice of the detective was cold. The only word Leah remembered was murder. Lying Still is an intriguing story about the dangerous relationship between psychiatrist Dr. Mark Favre and a family of three women: one is the woman he loved, one is the woman he killed, and one has a journal that could destroy him.
Part meditation, part reflection, part nostalgia in remembering human frailty, Avrom's haikus tell the story of a life lived in deep consciousness of the ordinary with "an astonished heart." As a reader, I was stopped in my tracks frequently by the divine insights so many of his haikus express. Avrom's Flowers of Emptiness: Imaginal Haiku does not avoid facing the blisters also gathered in his life's journey, informed so elegantly by Buddhist wisdom and practice. I loved reading them and delighted further in rereading them. Haikus, like all poetry, are to be reread, especially aloud. They live on a deeper level when heard. Let them resonate within you.Dennis Patrick Slattery, Ph.D., Distinguished Professor Emeritus in Mythological Studies at Pacifica Graduate Institute, and author of The Way of Myth: Stories' Subtle Wisdom.
