Life through My Glasses, a new collection of poems by Herbert
Siegel, combines two additional art forms for added dimension and
meaning, resulting in a unique approach, more functional than
poetic icons of earlier eras. Original paintings and illustrations
allow book lovers to visualize the subject of a poem, and
selectively inserted "call-outs"-used ubiquitously by
journalists-engage the reader in the poet's choice of a formal
structure or free verse. This, his fourth collection, presents a
contemporaneously written continuum of life ensconced in many forms
of poetry, including universal observations of nature, ancient
storytellers, gastronomy, and biographies-usually ending with a
touch of sardonic humor. "Life through My Glasses is beautiful ...
an intriguing form combining poems in an unusual shape, comparing
life and nature ... nature and resurrection ... life immortal. I
cannot add or take away from this masterpiece." -Yvonne Byrd, 2006
Senior Poet Laureate of Texas "Life through My Glasses reads
beautifully, Herb. It's a grand finale for your book ... a
masterpiece." -Dr. Kim Gorman, University of Kentucky, University
of Houston "I have to say I feel enriched and inspired having read
through your work. Thank you so much " -Andrea Strudensky, DLitt,
faculty, Vanier College, Montreal, Quebec
