Book Review

” I have found myself experiencing many mind states as I have read this book of poetry which is by turns powerful, hard-hitting, blood-chilling, tender, poignant, touching, romantic and passionate.  The impressions of the work range from political and philosophical to deeply emotional.

-Roberta Tenant, M.A., Editor-in-Chief, Falcon Books

The Mirror Within will be available in Book Stores:  November 25, 2021
