Angle of Reflection: An Anthology
Arctos Press (2017)
Angle of Reflection features the work of ten award-winning Los Angeles poets with a remarkable 20-year history of working together. Because of, and despite, the differences in these poets' singular voices, their poems carry on complex conversations—correspondences that invite the reader to engage with the contrasts and similarities, themes and images. With an Introduction by esteemed poet David St. John, ANGLE OF REFLECTION is a celebration of community, collaboration, and the joy of poetic diversity. Contributors include Marjorie Becker, Jeanette Clough, Dina Hardy, Paul Lieber, Sarah Maclay, Holaday Mason, Jim Natal, Jan Wesley, Brenda Yates & Mariano Zaro.
