4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Compilation of New Jersey's Spirit!, August 24, 2006
This review is from: Bluestones and Salt Hay: An Anthology of Contemporary New Jersey Poets (Paperback)
Joel Lewis, husband to Dr. Sandy Flitterman-Lewis who is the Author of To Desire Differently has compiled a wonderful anthology of New Jersey poets past and present in this book which I picked up at a bargain table at the Rutgers Bookstore. Anyway, the poets are various, Gay and straight, black and white, Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Atheist, etc., that put a different spin on living in the Garden State which is unfairly bashed with jokes. I recommend this book for anybody who wants a taste of New Jersey poetry and this book has a nice compilation of authors from various backgrounds and lifestyles and ethnicities.
