Editor: Gail Rudd Entrekin. Poetry by six Northern California Poets: Kirsten Casey, Gary Cooke, Cheryl Dumesnil, Judy Halebsky, Iven Lourie, Scott Young. Another anthology put together by the fiercely independent Hip Pocket Press, this book, according to poet Molly Fisk, .,."includes poems of childhood, love, travel, myth, reminiscence and landscape. But its essential nature is commitment -- to experience, sensation and language -- beautifully encompassed by the closing line of Judy Halebsky's DOWN THE MOUNTAIN: .,."whatever I came with I spent."
Poetry. "Part-lyric, part-narrative, part-novella in verse, these poems never stray far from their passionate appetite for life, fear of the unknown, and the titanic thrill and mystery of love. Many of these poems deal with the subtle realities of cancer diagnosis, chemo, the trance states of illness, the 'wait and see, ' the 'opposite oceans' of waking and dreaming, and the life-defining clarity the threat of death sharpens. With life's visible stuff blurring the invisible, still, love--ancient, un-prescribed, redeeming, intuitive--lights up the unseen."--Al Young
Poetry. In CHANGE (WILL DO YOU GOOD) Gail Entrekin lays out the boundries of what's really at stake in the affairs of the heart. In these poems, with an economy of words and the clarity of a practiced poet, she takes on life's transitions and, like Mary Oliver and Sharon Olds, bravely reveals the expectations beneath the choices we all must face. Gail Entrekin does what our best poets have always done; she makes the value of our emotional journeys available and visible...and real.
