  • Gareth
    George Klawitter
    Gray Eyes Quiet over steel, gray eyes focus from his soul out into a light murky with the smoke that night mists from the evening’s hocus-pocus.

    Since many things never change, the present collection of poems works on themes that endure in literature, among them the pain of loss and the thrill of love as captured in the agony of words, those slippery vehicles that humans must rely on for capturing thought. The title poem wonders: 'What can I say to sing to you that’s sensible to anyone but me?'Some of the poems here ar...

  • After Holy Cross, Only Notre Dame
    George Klawitter
    While seven religious men founded the University of Notre Dame in 1842, the history of its early years is generally told from Edward Sorin’s point of view. This biography of Urbain Monsimer makes new use of archival material to approach the university from a different perspective. From his earliest years in Holy Cross until his death, Monsimer was a fascinating person, bright...
