Gbanabom Hallowell

Opis

"Gbanabom Hallowell's poems are free flowing and he delivers them with flourish, aplomb, and satirical agility. His poems do not lack the classic surrealism, which are pertinent to poems of anguish. Reading Hallowell seems to confirm that beyond art form, poetry can be a soul-searching vehicle that offers a glimpse into the conscience of mankind, a nation and a poet's mindset---some form of refractive mirror. He has met the litmus test of having transcended the threshold that all aspiring poets must accost, which American poet and critic, M. L. Rosenthal, says, "was to practice the art of poetry on as high a level as possible, and with much honesty as possible." -Oseloka Obaze, Critic and Author of Regarscent Past: a collection of poems.
