"A world of lovers pulsing, breathing, absorbing, secreting so passionately even angels are envious." - John H. Sibley, Author of "Being and Homelessness" "After reading a few lines you will experience deep and genuine love... This poetry is meant to be read aloud, savored and reread." - Virginia Marciano "One hears in these sonnets the sensibility of a contemporary avatar of Wallace Stevens... Lentz helps us find true north in ourselves. This is the most important connection art can make." - Eric Sonnenschein, Novelist, Author of "Ad Nomad" "The opening quatrain from 'Ireland'... No doubt, Mahon, or even Heaney, would have been pleased to pen those lines." - Gary W. Anderson, Author of "Best of All Possible Worlds" "A charming bouquet of sonnets... nice innovation." - Christopher Bernard, Poet "Beautiful, delightful, meaningful and more importantly bare truth expressed in writing with style." - Goodreads
