The Shangri LaTitudes of the title are not some imaginaryabodes in the clouds, above and beyond ordinary reality.These latitudes are the ones which lie where the paths of Truth and Beauty cross, forming quadrants where each sub-subject comingles to form fresh ruminations, not unlikethose from Rumi, not unlike Four Quartets by Eliot, thoughusing forms unfamiliar to either poet.There are four rooms in the human heart, each one its own experiential zone where passions move around, up down andaround within the stream of consciousness, as well as stirringthe subconsciousness. Perhaps the latter ruminations formthe greater portion of the poems in this selection.This is a book of brief poems deliberately constructed foreasy reading, brief pieces that can be picked up and putdown within a few moments.One or two poems may take longer to digest, but hopefullythe same intensity of feeling will be there, like a bonsaiarriving at your coffee table, all trim, newly in flower.
