O knihe

Life through My Glasses, a new collection of poems by Herbert Siegel, combines two additional art forms for added dimension and meaning, resulting in a unique approach, more functional than poetic icons of earlier eras.

Original paintings and illustrations allow book lovers to visualize the subject of a poem, and selectively inserted "call-outs"-used ubiquitously by journalists-engage the reader in the poet's choice of a formal structure or free verse.

This, his fourth collection, presents a contemporaneously written continuum of life ensconced in many forms of poetry, including universal observations of nature, ancient storytellers, gastronomy, and biographies-usually ending with a touch of sardonic humor.

"Life through My Glasses is beautiful ... an intriguing form combining poems in an unusual shape, comparing life and nature ... nature and resurrection ... life immortal. I cannot add or take away from this masterpiece."
-Yvonne Byrd, 2006 Senior Poet Laureate of Texas

"Life through My Glasses reads beautifully, Herb. It's a grand finale for your book ... a masterpiece."
-Dr. Kim Gorman, University of Kentucky, University of Houston

"I have to say I feel enriched and inspired having read through your work. Thank you so much!"
-Andrea Strudensky, DLitt, faculty, Vanier College, Montreal, Quebec
