POETRY SUPER HIGHWAY BOOKSTORE
MIRIAM'S IRIS, OR ANGELS IN THE GARDEN by MAJA TROCHIMCZYK featured
this week in the Poets of the Week books section of the PSH Bookstore:
The genesis of this poetry collection includes years of travelling
and an internal journey leading to a serene California garden. The
map of the stages on the journey is created by the appearances of six
angels: Amor, the angel of romance, Eros, the angel of desire, Eloe,
the angel of sorrow, Thanatos, the angel of death, Ellenai, the angel
of consolation, and Sophia, the angel of timeless wisdom. Eros and
Thanatos are Greek twins, Amor is their baby cousin. Eloe died of
sorrow and Ellenai carried her on his wings in Juliusz Slowacki's
romantic drama, Anhelli. Sophia needs no introductions, since she is
the wise Queen, the best friend of Rumi and all Christian mystics.
Maja Trochimczyk is a Polish-American poet, music historian and
non-profit director based in Los Angeles.

I AM MY OWN ORANGE COUNTY - 11TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION by RICK LUPERT
"Irreverent and yet somehow deeply empathic, many of the pieces
showcase Lupert's Prevert-like instinct for finding the profound in
the absurd."
- Brendan Constantine
Rick's second book, originally published in 1997 with all of the
original selected poems from artwork, introduction and orange-ness,
along with a newly written "Re-Introduction" and a "bonus material"
section featuring a selection of 29 additional (sometimes even MORE
sophomoric) poems from the I Am My Own Orange County 'era'.
