Recenzii
“Lynn Strongin argues that elegy is a convention in poetry that praises as much as it mourns, which is historically true and successfully executed in the poems collected here. Because death is an ultimate reality shared by all---and understood by none---The Sorrow Psalms will find a receptive audience.”---Claudia Keelan, director, MFA International, University of Nevada, Las Vegas
“A wise and judicious collection illuminating the eternal human desire to memorialize those who have passed through our lives. The Sorrow Psalms pays tribute to those who have shared their gift of learning and joy, but also includes poems that depict acts of violence resulting in death and lamentation. It is a celebration of the tenacity of the human spirit.”---Martin Tucker, editor, Confrontation
