Standing in the Chaos: Poems by Howard F. Stein

$15.95

Standing in the Chaos is a book of wise, humane and deeply felt poems. Howard F. Stein doesn’t shy away from what, in another era, might be called political, but in our world today are really existential.

Stylistically direct, some might even be called prose/poems, but all are informed by his deep faith. We learn from his Introduction that he understands his own poems better than even the best reader, but you will be the judge of that.
–Irene Willis, Poetry Editor, IPBooks
