Call Her Goddess - call her God the Mother - call her the Feminine Principle - her children need her, and our world deeply suffers the pains of her absence. Through the warmth and the wit of poetry, this book is an invitation for all - women, men, of any religion or of no religion - to welcome her home and set a permanent place for her at the family table. Carol Lynn Pearson’s poetry is accessible, thoughtful, and thought-provoking - the perfect balance of wisdom, humility, and humor.

Divine
Revisado: 10-29-20
Carol Lynn delivers the much needed input of the feminine into the Divine. I'm honored that I have been able to read her words as well as listen to her read her own words. Poetry is meant to be heard and hearing it from the voice of the poet is critical.

Noir City
Revisado: 06-24-18
It has been a long wait for a new anthology from Susie Bright. Since I've began reading BAE over twenty years ago, I would read pretty much any anthology Susie put together. The Noir series from Akashic takes a geographic location and plumbs the noir-istic depths of the locale.
Santa Cruz having shown up in the vampire lore of The Lost Boys, the stories in this collection, like the movie, look for the dark underneath the surf and sun. Combined that with the history of Santa Cruz as the murder capital of the world due to a couple of serial killers in the 1970s and Santa Cruz is a great noir setting. Many of the stories in the collection played off this historical contrast of Surf City and Murder City.
It wasn't really spoken directly in the stories, but I found it interesting how socio-economics played out in the conceptions of noir in Santa Cruz. Many of the stories hung around the immigrant and agricultural populations, including bleed over from more agricultural areas. You could spend a lot of time just on the socio-economics of noir horror.
Probably my favorite story in the collection was Treasure Island, but that could be because we have a neighborhood website in our area and I feel that creeping curmudgeon sneaking up on me.
Like all collections, there are stories you connect with and those you don't. This is also similar when you have a group of narrators. This is the price of variety, but the quality of the editorial combining of the stories adds to the overall excellence of this collection.
