Description
"There is absolutely no element of this collection of poems that I disliked. Each poem is vibrant and captivating, always sparking reflection and soul searching." - Maria Esposito, OnlineBookClub.org Deep Focus is an intimate scrutiny of childhood and youth, husbands and lovers, illness and aging. The opposite of a confessional style, Loth's writing is crisp, objective, detailed, discreet. The intensity of revelation is modulated by a wealth of subject, including film noir, Egyptian architecture, the Amish, Lipizzan stallions. The collection culminates with reflections on nine classic painters whom the author loves. Because some of these poems are formatted in a new way, we recommend reading them in the paperback book, not in Kindle or a tablet, where some lines wrap around and do not appear as written.
