Sojourn at Elmhurst: A Poem Sequence

by Michael Lieberman

"Michael Lieberman's Frank Goldin is, by his own judgement, insane. He's a biochemist by profession, a husband, now a hospital patient, an entertainer of visions... In this brilliant book of linked poems, dualities are described and suffered as 'the soul of the poet mediates the transactions of our life on this earth' while 'caught in the disorienting whirls in which order can be glimpsed.' Science and art teach us to love the questions, as Rilke noted. Lieberman's Goldin asks and asks in a language we love, rich as his name" -- Hilda Raz, author of DIVINE HONORS

About the author

I am a Houston-based poet and fiction writer and former research physician. I've published eight collections of poems, including, most recently, "Some Dark Fire, New and Selected Poems," and three novels—all with small presses. The big news is that I have just launched my first thriller, "The Nano-Thief, a Lenny D. Novel."
