REVIEW
The works are a collaboration of two brothers, Alfred Robert Cohen (posthumous) and Richard Shain Cohen and relate primarily to Maine, New York, and Texas. The collection is that of love, childhood, the transfiguration of forests as seen through the seasons, the seas of Maine and Texas, the effects of the newly discovered universe upon the psyche and how this affects poetry. Here are insights regarding nature and the stages of human life.
"What poetry should be -- a meeting of the cerebral and the sensuous; a dismantling of dulling cliches and offering in their place stirring visual insights into our doubts and fears and joys." .
Rosemary Coleman, artist and Professor Emerita of English and Literature, Illinois Benedictine University, Lisle, Illinois
