First released in 2017, this reissue of 'Sotapanna,' by the author of 'Dreams of the Romantics' and 'Roman Visions,' (both in 2025) brings to the fore M. G. Turner’s vision of a spiritual and creative endeavor while living in one of the must bustling and active cities in the world, New York City. Through reflections on art, walks, neighborhoods, and nature he speaks of a different way of being that can be found by returning to the ancient practices of mediation and may perhaps, over time, relieve us of all our modern suffering. A celebration of 'the art life' this chapbook 'Sotapanna,' which in Pali, a Theravadan Buddhist language, means 'one who enters the stream,' is a book of exploration and joy that will hold readers afloat with its insightful and touching depictions of mind, matter, and meditation. Also paired with Turner’s poems are ten original artworks by the artist Kyle Gallup.

    Edward V Bonner

  • Reader Faustus
    M. G. Turner
    The 'Faust' legend is as old as time, as is the proverbial 'deal with the devil.' In M. G.

While Turner’s 'novella in verse' hearkens back to Marlowe’s The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus (1601), Goethe’s Fa...
