Martin Galvin's work reminds us that poems say things the way most people would say them if only they could. In conversation with the reader, many of these poems have a voice that rings with a slight Irish lilt, echoing his boyhood neighborhood in Philadelphia. But rising out of that, the voice is almost always quirky and folksy, angular and hooked, and yet somehow surprising and tender and lyrical. -Rod Jellema

Rick Peabody's latest collection of poetry is a testament to the many facets of his career. Though Peabody is a writer, poet, publisher, editor and long-time literary maven who has dedicated a large part of his own life to promoting other writers, especially young and/or emerging writers, this one-time wunderkind of American letters' own style has matured and his work has taken on a depth and complexity, and the richness of a fine vintage.

<p>Exquisitely made, lyrical, yet unpretentious, Mary Ann Larkin's Gannon Street evokes the complexities of a black neighborhood and its relationship with a sole white resident, with all the poignance of a novel, but with a gifted poet's miraculous economy. We know these characters, their dreams, frustrations, acts of ordinary kindness, in all four dimensions, but above it all there's a visionary fifth dimension hovering, showing a wisdom and imagination of the highest order, making Gannon Street a place not to be missed in anyone's tour of America.
