Review

I have never read anything remotely like this in my life. Kelley has an imagination beyond compare... -- Suzanne Strickland

The poet here takes a great risk in beginning at the end: readers must believe the dead speaker... -- John Horvath Jr.

Ward Kelley takes the reader and listener on a pilgrimage through a wilderness of souls reviving their heritage... -- Janet Buck

Product Description

A suberb selection of an epic poem along the lines of Dante's "Divine Comedy" with full voice recitals.

There is nothing we could say better about this CD than that which has been said in reviews by some of the best and most respected poets around the world today; these are included below:

As one of the publishers experimenting with books on CD-ROM today, I often hear this remark. "I like the lower cost of these books but I don't want to be tied to a computer screen for days or weeks at a time to read them." Since that seems to be the big drawback in using the CD-ROM book I would like to mention the one thing a person never thinks about. All books on CD-ROM can be printed out for a dollar or twer in full color with the photographs and other fancy material included, to be read at leisure commuting to work or in bed when one can't sleep. A full color printed book of photographs and an original novel would sell for 50 to 100 dollars or more. That makes the CD-ROM an exceptional value for the consumer of today.

5.0 out of 5 stars The other side . . ., March 17, 2002

By	Katherine "Kat" (Hammond, LA United States) - See all my reviews

In these poems Ward Kelley takes the reader to the other side, into the unknown, into deep corners of the soul. His characters have a transcendental effect of overtaking you, pulling you beyond your existence. What better way to explore your own soul and still be able to learn something about yourself? His stories have a touch of medieval spice along with the contemporary physics of humanity. Each time I listen to Comedy Incarnate, I come away with something new and different. I take something back into my world. The poems stem from tragedies, yet blossom with humility. Kelley is comfortable with the soul and he shows it. This is definitely something special for those of you who study literature or just a special gift to share with others.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rave Rave Rave by David Jackson at ArtVilla, March 3, 2002

By	David M. Jackson (Murfreesboro, Tennessee) - See all my reviews

One thing we all love about Ward Kelley is his ability to tell a great story. It's a fact that he and his dear wife have helped so many children. This man is a saint. Just the one to take the journey into hell and make it back. Just the one to tell us a great story about it and that is what this is, one wonderfully spun story. The writing is so beautifully crafted that it holds you perfectly in it's grasp. Couldn't put it down until I read all of it. We are escorted by ladies as we travel the various regions of hell. No pun intended because these are the great women of the ages and they are so integral to the meaning. It is the respect Kelley has for women that stands out. This isn't just classic, it's truly wonderful! Rave Rave Rave
