REVIEW: (Poems For Paula)21/06/2008 by ' Sally Patricia Gardner ' Author of: ' Lillian's Story ' It is the sheer diversity of Tom's work that takes your breath away.This is graphically illustrated by the first and last poems.'The Det' takes you to a situation that, thank God, most of us have never had to face, and leaves you wondering how you would have coped. Less bravely, then and afterwards, I suspect. 'The Missing Sock' with its wit and humour is a wonderful cheery,cheeky finish to this collection. And in between? All life (and death)is here.Tom's struggles with the demon cancer, (long may he go on winning this battle!),his military experiences, and shining through the collection, his love for Paula. Tom writes beautifully and honestly, with a rare ability to illuminate large topics with a sideways glance at the small everyday incidents to which we all relate. Thank you, Tom. submitted by - Tom Mcgreevy

Inspired by a puzzling series of dreams about a favorite comic book hero from his boyhood, the author embarks upon an arduous but ultimately healing odyssey into a dark and damaged internal landscape, the wreckage of a childhood spent with an angry, abusive, distant father. As he begins to understand these dreams, and allows them to lead him forward, he also begins to accept his unique personal history, understand its consequences in his adult life, and take responsibility for his own healing. Iron Man Family Outing is widely used in the United States and internationally by therapists, counselors, and men's groups as an aid in the exploration of masculine psychology and men's issues, especially for men who are adult survivors of childhood abuse. submitted by - Rick Belden

Katmandu, Katmandu (Satis Shroff) Satis Shroff’s anthology is about a poet caught between upheavals in two countries, Nepal and Germany, where maoists and skin-heads are trying to undermine democratic values, religious and cultural life. Satis Shroff writes political poetry, in German and English, about the war in Nepal (My Nepal, Quo vadis?), the sad fate of the Nepalese people (My Nightmare, Only Sagarmatha Knows), the emergence of neo-fascism in Germany (Mental Molotovs, The Last Tram to Littenweiler) and love (The Broken Poet, Without Words, About You), women’s woes (Nirmala, Bombay Brothel). His bicultural perspective makes his poems rich, full of awe and at the same time heartbreakingly sad. In writing ‘home,’ he not only returns to his country of origin time and again, he also carries the fate of his people to readers in the West, and his task of writing is a very important one in political and social terms. His true gift is to invent Nepalese metaphors and make them accessible to the West through his poetry. (187 pages) Paperback: €13.84 Download: €6.25 submitted by - Satis Shroff
Nicole Ford brings short testimonies to life with a poetic license in Drowning In Dirt. Everyday living is captured as Ford refuses to toss issues aside to remain unsuccessfully medicated. Ford digs deep and brings forth the complexities of the flesh without tip-toeing around subjects, but addresses them head-on just the same as they come in this journey called life; yet she offers encouragement, empowerment, hope and healing. Don't let the title put fear inside of you, this is not a sorrowful walk through poetry; they are more like short stories or devotionals. This book gives you the opportunity to look at yourself and say "yeh, that's me" and do something positive as you take the next step forward! It is the unspoken situations in life (marriage on the rocks, sex before marriage, loneliness) that we don't want to discuss that jump off the pages of Drowning In Dirt, stare you in the face, and say "rise up and walk with authority!" submitted by - Nicole Ford

Pardon Us Ms. Writer takes you on a poetic journey through events, locations, art and ideals. From the sandy shores of Ireland to Christmas in the forest and from painting to challenging others a unique collection of wit, style, purpose and subject. These poems are full of substance without the heaviness that often comes from such subjects. Likewise, their fluidity does not detract from the depths they are able to address. Intended both as paintings of words, as well as thought-provoking discussion starters, the poems leap from the page to remind us, as we are told in the opening poem "Words", that the words have danced onto the page to express themselves. submitted by - Megan Easley-Walsh
