Excerpt
“From ethics to eros, Shirley Hall's poetry has an edge that sharply dissects the dilemmas of contemporary life. Hers is the voice of the prophet crying out for social justice; the voice of a compassionate human being seeking basic decency and dignity. More than mere entertainment and aesthetic experience, Hall's compositions provide insight and instruction, and are guaranteed to make your spirit sing.” Lance Strate Prof. of Communication and Media Studies Fordham University, New York ------ “...a spokesperson for others - brave at voicing wrongs - her poems have a courage behind them, a tongue free to unleash a fury…words that dig deep into ones soul. Marvelous!” Aine MacAodha Author: Where the Three Rivers Meet Omagh Ireland ------ “...a book for everyone who cares for the human condition and treasures the beauty of the word. A must read. ~ LISTEN… and learn” Constance Stadler, Ph.D Author: Tinted Steam, Sublunary Curse Washington DC / Virginia ------ “...poems that are moving, intelligent and thought provoking… she defines the essence of my group. A book you’ll read again and again” Joe Sting Cup of Coffee Networkers
