Avocation


I was really happy to see the New Pages write-up about the Chattahoochee Review. Congratulations to John Guzlowski; Referring to his Holocaust poems, Mary Baken says, "I was completely astonished, broken, and stalled..." That pretty much says it all.

Baken also calls out (in a good way) Josie Sigler. When I accepted Josie's submission, I wrote her myself to tell her how moved I was by her poems. They are fresh and unique without the grandstanding cleverness I see so often.

I'd love to share the poems here, but I'd get busted this soon. Both poets are googleable, or get yourselves a copy of CR's winter issue.
