Anything Goes
REVIEWS (Just a sampler)
From a doctor in California:
SOJOURN IN LIMERICK is superb. As good or better than your first. We'll
look forward to your first on-line book scheduled for January.
From a Dartmouth classmate:
I just finished our Poet Laureate's latest masterpiece entitled A
SOJOURN IN LIMERICK, and it's definitely a winner - - even better than
his first knockout, POTPOURRI OF THE MIND.
Especially interesting to Dartmouth alums is the section called A Visit
to the Green which contains seven very lovely poems about our alma
mater.
Joel's Poetic Limerick style is delightful and most interesting because he
is attempting to adapt the limerick form for use as a vehicle for genuine
poetry. I am sure that you will find it well worth the effort to visit
his excellent website which will give you all the dope on his work and
how to order his books.
From an art dealer in New York City:
Many thanks for sending along your fabulous new edition of Poetic
Limericks. Thank you also for the fantastic inscription to my dad. I
am sure that he all love every poem - - my husband and I will enjoy
perusing all of your fine work before sending it on to dad next month.
From my wife:
Joel is really getting to be pretty good at this poetry stuff.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
As with the first book, there are a total of 109 pages in this beautifully
bound hardcover book. The jacket and internal graphics match
POTPOURRI OF THE MIND and thereby make a lovely set. Again, everything
is first class, including heavy paper stock and gold leaf printing
on the spine.
A SOJOURN IN LIMERICK is a limited edition with only
500 copies printed in total.
A third and final book for this set is envisioned at some time
in the future.
I like what I see! I want to place an
order!
