Product Description
by Felicio E. Martin (Author)
" Felicio Martin''s Eli''s House of Poetry is a work that deserves attention. Martin''s poetry has a sensual innocence, an ardent tenderness which surprises again and again. One feels both flesh and emotion fused into tight lines that sing of youth with aged wisdom. It is upon us to read, ask, and try to meet the author''s hopes." -Brent Buell, Novelist, Actor, Teacher "A true poet inhabits his or her world. And so it is with Felicio Martin, a young poet with a clear vision of what he wants to say and who is keenly aware of the power of language and the poet 's duty to challenge us with his words and images. There is poignancy in these poems of love, betrayal, loneliness and yearning as well as strength and vulnerability in his passionate need to express himself, in his need to create an interlocutor -us-his public. He invites us to inhabit his world and his home, "Eli's House of Poetry," in his moving tribute to the father he never knew." -Dr. Gloria F. Waldman, Professor, Author
