To say that Bruce Boston (1943-2004) was a giant of our times is an understatement. His speculative writing spanned the entire second half of the twentieth century and first quarter of the twenty-first across the fields of poetry, fiction and essays. A bibliography of Bruce’s accomplishments is beyond impressive and is best described as simply awe-inspiring to his fellow writers and readers alike. Herein are poems by Bruce’s friends, acquaintances, and followers, inspired by the works of Bruce Boston.His multiple awards include Stoker Awards and Rhysling Awards. His Orwellian novel The Guardener’s Tale made the final cut of four for the Nebular Award, and has been translated in several languages.
