Book synopsis

ABOUT THE BOOK Jeanne Powell's latest collection of poetry entitled Two Seasons must rank among her best work, either poems or essays. These poems are inspiring and inspired because of their uncanny ability to transmit genuine feelings of rage and love, justice and injustice, with an eloquence and power that few contemporary American writers can match. Her gifted "word dancing" comes across forcefully yet gracefully in both oral recitations and on the written page. When I heard Jeanne deliver in public one of the exquisite poems from Two Seasons, called "Dual Face of Fear," I was stunned at the impact it had on the audience. Yet no one could have been more deeply moved than I because, as a professor who has often employed poetry to convey complex theories over many years, I could appreciate how, in a single poem, she managed to communicate the fierce emotional realities of the human experience. - Dennis Dalton Professor Emeritus, Political Science / Political Theory Barnard College, Columbia University ABOUT THE AUTHOR Jeanne Powell has earned degrees from WSU in Detroit and USF in San Francisco. She writes prose poems, flash fiction and short stage plays. Her previous books are MY OWN SILENCE and WORD DANCING, both published in second editions by Taurean Horn Press in 2013/2014. Jeanne's collection of essays, CAROUSEL, was published by Regent Press in 2014. For ten years Jeanne hosted an acclaimed spoken word series, "Celebration of the Word." She is the inspiration behind Meridien PressWorks(TM) which has published 20 authors since 1996. She has been an instructor in the CS, OLLI and UB programs on California campuses.
