Written in unsparing, haunting detail, Claudia Serea’s unforgettable A Dirt Road Hangs From the Sky brings to life the horrors of the brutal communist repression in her native Romania in the second part of the 20th century - the prisons, the torture, the barbarous inhumanity- preserving in memory a time that should never be forgotten. She writes: 'Tell me, grandma, everything you know / so I can be your mouth when you are gone.' The grief is lasting; memory must serve as justice. - Charles Rammelkamp, editor of The Potomac Review, author of Fusen BakudanABOUT THE AUTHORClaudia Serea, a two-time Pushcart Prize and Best of the Net nominee, is a Romanian-born poet who immigrated to the U.S. in 1995.

Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular.
