Originally published as a chapbook by Crisis Chronicles Press in 2009 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Alex Gildzen's very first chapbook and the 60th anniversary of his first ever publication, ELYRIA has now been revised and illustrated by the author to give you more of what you came to Elyria for in the first place. Exclusively on Kindle.
Gildzen has been publishing for more than 40 years. Early chapbooks were issued by such presses as Abraxas, Killaly and Ghost Dance. One of his first anthology appearances was in "The Living Underground." He edited the little magazine "Toucan."
For more than a dozen years Gildzen has been writing "Alex in Movieland," an autobiography in the form of a list.
Loved the personal nature and reflections in the poems. Recollections of time spent in Elyria, Ohio are filled with both warmth and humor. Made me smile several times.
