Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Many of the poems in this book are about love, having been created in obedience to what the author thinks of as an eleventh commandment, one which bids us love. The poems reflect the genesis of his love for his muse, his wife Pearl. They demonstrate the ways his literary and personal life has been so plenteously shaped by the exemplary love poems of Dante, as well as by the love the couple have had for each other, especially in their days of courtship. The "Poems of Love" were also inspired by reproductions of the illustrations that accompany them in this book. The "Other Poems" are being shared as favorite interludes of the author which will hopefully inform and entertain the reader.
