Profoundly powerful and evocative in voice and tone, this
collection of introspective and visionary poems is inspired by
Barbara Paul-Emile's search for deeper meaning behind the seemingly
disparate experiences of life. The thoughts and feelings expressed
in this collection reveal a compassionate and mystical approach
towards experience. In the words of the poet, the dance of life is
the continual flow between pain and joy, fear and love,
hopelessness and triumphant overcoming demanded of us as we
negotiate the field of existence. This collection is influenced by
the rich shamanic heritage of the West Indian islands and follows
Paul-Emile's recently published novel, SEER, a magical tale of
redemption set against the lush landscape and spicy aromas of the
Caribbean. Described as an exciting new literary voice with broad
cross-cultural appeal, the poet speaks with the interpretive depth
and power of the mythic shaman who has found the bridge that
connects to deeper realities. - Barbara Paul-Emile is Professor of
English and Maurice E. Goldman Distinguished Professor of Arts and
Sciences at Bentley College, Waltham, MA.
