The Awful Truth

About the Book

Mr. Palumbo imbues American poetry with the sort of high octane insight and heart it has lacked for decades; and in so doing, is very much grounded in the everyday hopes and aspirations that rise to the fore, continually, in questioning both existence, love and faith itself.

As in so many other ways, this intensely lyrical, muscled work is very much like re-entering the world again with a new found friend and guide who is destined to lead you home at last—more enlightened, toughened, and that much better understood!

THE EDITORS

About the Author

Mr. Palumbo is a former teacher and graduate of Columbia University, who has now embarked on a career in writing. His next two books (as currently projected) are: STOLEN MOMENTS (love poems) and AROUND INFINITY: Poems that question the ultimate reach and responsibility of who we are and what we are—in having to deal with the word that defines our destiny, and the many aspects of character that get us there, unbidden or not!
