Star Quilt: The Seventh Jump

Lynn Strongin is a poet and mystic -- decoding the unseen messages of this life. One can see oneself in the protagonists of Star Quilt: The Seventh Jump - photographer Maggie upstart pioneer pushing the envelope of her art and Rachel a retired postal carrier with back problems who could once walk the length and breadth of a small town with a heavy letter sack on her back. All Strongins characters are to one degree or another visionaries and outsiders. Anne Ross translator There is no other poet writing today who takes poetry so totally seriously and gets so absolutely involved with the writing-process as a means of psycho-spiritual rebirth. You enter Strongins world and its not just like traveling to another planet but into a whole new alternative universe. Hugh Fox poet and critic This new book is a wonder. Glenna Luschei poet About Lynn Strongins short fiction collection Albino Peacock: . . . a quite a wonderful achievement. I read it from start to finish in one sitting. Its marvelous. It is music. It is poetry. Florence Miller teacher poet co-editor of Poems by Shakespeares Sisters (Shakespeares Sisters Press)
