Immigration, Emigration, Diversity An Anthology by Timothy F. Crowley and Jaki Shelton Green $21.95, paperback, 112 pages, Publication date: March 2005 Immigration, Emigration, Diversity is a poetry anthology that is a testimonial to the possibilities of hope, new visions, and new graces that only our children, and their children, can bring forth and foster through the necessary celebration of diversity. This exceptional book of poetry features such celebrated poets as Mark Smith-Soto, Lynn Veach Sadler, John Boyle O’Reilly, Mahmoud Darwish, Jaki Shelton Green, and the former Poet Laureate, Billy Collins. Through the different poetic voices of a diverse group, this anthology explores the terrain of immigration, emigration, and diversity from a highly unique perspective. This perfect arrangement of known poets with lesser known, but just as talented, poets signifies the very idea that Crowley and Green intend to communicate: diversity is a kindred concept with great rewards. All earnings from this effort are deposited in the www.writersforpeace.org fund and used to finance any future events associated with www.writersforpeace.org. (ISBN 1-59715-003-7) is available through Chapel Hill Press, Inc.

Hat's Off!
Hats Off! to Joseph Cavano, whose controversial short story “Donors” has been selected for publication in the May issue of North Atlantic Review. His newest, as of yet untitled short-story collection, has already attracted the attention of several publishers who have inquired about publishing it sometime this year. |
