Synopsis

Whether it be England or America, Amelia Earhart or a commoner, war or wedding, this collection of poems paints your imagination with visions of them all. In Lynn Strongin s work, bread suddenly becomes the color of buffalo . Strongin magnifies the world around us. Hugh Fox, late great poet and critic Lynn Strongin s poems carefully explore historical memory and a sense of recovery with a lyricism that is never sentimental, but disciplined, complex. She explores... how to live after the blade, to live as either wounded or as a ghost. I love the notion of secret history, the beatitudes and brutalisms behind all our grander... fictions. Jonathan Minton Accept Lynn Strongin s invitation into this magical kingdom of bees, lambs and foxes. Wish too: We can only afford to push away what we utterly possess. Glenna Luschei, poet and publisher

She studied literature, music, and devoted herself to writing. Published in thirty anthologies, she is a frequent presence in the American classrooms, and several abroad.
