In this robust collection Crystal Bacon explores vision and the
nature of myth-making, from cultural archetypes, such as Persephone
and Narcissus, to Anne Frank and Chet Baker, to the personal myths
that shape individual lives. Additionally, these poems, written
from Bacon's perspective and adopted personas, examine the timeless
themes of birth and death, love and loss, maleness and
femaleness.
As a Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation poet, Crystal Bacon led
writing seminars for high school teachers in southern New Jersey.
Her work has appeared in publications in the US and Canada as well
as the anthology, "Urban Nature: Poems about Wildlife in the City."
A professor at Gloucester County College, she divides her time
between New Jersey and Nova Scotia.
