We, Who Walked Beneath The Stars was written by Ray Dio Ryterski over the span of about two years. The idea to compose a collection came to Ray after the title poem lost a poetry contest. After failing to publish the title poem as a stand alone piece, Ray thought about what they wanted to do with the poem, not wanting to let it sit and collect dust. It was then that Ray had the idea to write a collection based upon and woven around the title piece.

The initial conception of this collection w...

'Rosina Neginsky reminds readers that we are also artists, for he works summon our responsibility.'

'Filled with expressivity, her distinctive poetry does not resemble that of any poet. The title of the book, JUGGLER, taken from one of her poems, refers to a figurative Juggler who manipulates human behavior and the inner manifestations of human beings toward their destiny. Like life, the Juggler appears throug...

It started as they always start, one new Facebook friend messaging another. But things got pretty deep pretty soon, since the lady seemed to have all the answers to questions I had, and yet posed other questions I hadn't even dared ask myself! And then of course it came out that those around me had varying degrees of understanding or paranoia about it: most people say that if it is too good to be true it usually is, yet my experience until now has proven to me that reality is stranger than fi...

While listening to the songs sung by Nick Cave, Radiohead, Trio and others these texts came into existence. Their worlds and words were replaced by mine. Their sound did make me look closer.

When the New York Public Library announced in October 1968 that its Berg Collection had acquired the original manuscript of The Waste Land, one of the most puzzling mysteries of twentieth-century literature was solved. The manuscript was not lost, as had been believed, but had remained among the papers of John Quinn, Eliot's friend and adviser, to whom the poet had sent it in 1922.

If the discovery of the manuscript was startling, its content was even more so, because the published version of...

The poems in this collection arise from the vivid awareness that we are immersed in mystery. Dwelling in the shadow of Gabriel’s wing, we are called to embrace the plenitude of miracle and melancholy that weave our lives. The cover painting of Caspar David Friedrich intimates this spirit: two gazes—a man’s and a woman’s—contemplate and converge in a vision beyond themselves. A vast sky canopies a somber forest: at the penumbral verge of luminous and tenebrous realms, their surrender...

Soon after Russia invaded Ukraine on 24th February 2022, author and poet Alexander Korotko began to set down as poetry the turbulent responses at the emotional, philosophical and simply human levels evoked by the resulting war. Thus, we read in the 88 poems in this volume – completed in just less than 100 days – of the seemingly endless wail of sirens; of sheltering in cellars and tunnels; of the celebrated Ukrainian steppe, churned by tanks; the dead – “our killed, have become our Sa...
