Editorial Review
Charles Bane Jr., a Chicago native, is a globally published poet. The Chapbook is beautifully illustrated in color pastel drawings by Canadian artist Isabelle Pruneau, and designed by Polish-born artist Karolina Faber. With the touch of these two talented artists, Charles' poems of happiness, struggle, and romance sing off the page.
"We aren't used, in this ravaged era, to poems of happiness, and yet that rarity is what Charles Bane, Jr., offers us. An offering it is, nor can we doubt that this poet conceives poetry as a sacramental endeavor, with human love as our nearest approach to the divine. He takes Buber's "I and Thou" a step further to form what he calls a "monotheism of we." Judaism is supremely the religion of reinterpretation, and this poet's embodiment of it demonstrates that historical tragedy finds its best answer in the tender bonds we form in order to choose not death but life." - Alfred Corn, past Guggenheim Fellow, recipient of the Levinson Prize by Poetry Magazine.
"In reading the words of Charles Bane Jr. we are given a window ~ as the windows of Saint Chapelle ~ to a rarefied art. Soft light of gradient hues, delicately sculpted and hewn just so, this is what Chagall would write if he were a poet. Each work feels as if a reflective walk. There is always the moment of slow epiphany, a soft exhalation born of knowing and living deeply. To read this book is to become a harvester of the finest in literary riches." - Constance Stadler, Ph D., Pushcart Prize nominee, Erbacce Finalist, author of five books of poetry and noted literary editor.
