  • Love Letters to the World
    George Genovese
    Desire in its multifariously limpid and obscure manifestations is one of the salient themes that informs many of the poems in this collection, from the way it is experienced in its recognisably subjective forms as longing, love or intention, to the more challenging notion of its expression as artefact – the objective creations of daily use such as cups, tables, books and money....

  • Mind Drift
    George Genovese
    A number of the works in this collection centre on the notion of ’the journey’. In all instances, it is ultimately an inner personal one, psychic or spiritual in nature in accordance with whatever term best resonates with the reader. For the author, the journey is a search for meaning, a place of habitation and belonging, of reflective respite away from the round of daily strug...

  • The Bookworm
    George Genovese
    While most of the characters you’ll meet in these pages are far from perfect, and, with all their anxieties, foibles and frailties, a world away from being heroic, they are recognisably human. What they lack in polish or perfection they more than abundantly make up for in inconspicuous generosity and modesty, much too often under-appreciated for the ramifications these quieter ...

  • A Gloomorous Book In Verse
    George Genovese
    As the title suggests, A Gloomorous Book Inverse is a seriously funny book and should not be left in the possession of unsupervised children. There’s a considerable risk that without the usual parental responsibility to spoil the fun children will not put it down and neglect their choirs and homework. Just as importantly, parents unaccompanied by children will not have anyone s...

  • Fate’s Take-Out Slide
    Dan Taylor / George Genovese
    Few would dispute the pitching greatness of Sandy Koufax--but was Paul Pettit better? Jim Baxes was once compared to the great Pie Traynor yet few baseball fans have ever heard of him. John Elway was undeniably one of the greatest quarterbacks in pro football history but could he have been an even better baseball player? For most fans greatness is measured in trophies and ...

  • Time Steals Softer
    George Genovese
    The theme of time and its associated expressions of mutability, limitation and loss figures prominently in this collection. The title poem is an attempted objectification, one could say personification, of time which ultimately overturns any of the parallels drawn between it and the figures adduced as its visible representatives to stand in any symmetrical relationship. In the ...

  • The Essential Space of Play
    George Genovese
    Reflections on love, loss and the play of poetic imagination recur in this collection. In one of the two free verse works, ‘The Passing Poem’, these unite. This poem was something I felt compelled to write after attending the funerals of two friends. Both times I was struck by how people who might not normally read poetry, let alone write it, composed poems to express their gri...

  • A Scout’s Report
    Dan Taylor / George Genovese
    Many in baseball consider the scout to be the most important figure in any organization: It is the scout’s work in the high school and college bleachers that unearths future legends. Few have achieved more--and in such grand style--than George Genovese. In a game that values numbers, Genovese’s are staggering. No other scout has been responsible for more players in a singl...
