Prism

Summary: Elegant, Subtle, Yet Accessible
Review: Great book! Elegantly produced book of poems by one of the best poets writing today. The poems are subtle, sensuous yet wholly accessible. David St. John is a poet who feels things passionately and makes the reader feel them, too. Photographs are incredible, too.

Summary: A delight!
Review: PRISM is an absolutely gorgeous book -- amazing poetry by one of the best poets writing today.  It has dozens of elegant, eloquent sonnet-length poems by David St. John plus 16 full-color photographs by Lance Patigian.  But, still, the book has humor and plenty of (yes!) old-fashioned romance and sentiment.  Many of the poems are love poems; and all of them are about colors in one way or another.  This is a book you can pick up, open, and begin reading anywhere.  A great book to read aloud to a friend or lover.  I'm going to buy several more copies to give away as Christmas gifts!
