Regulus

Rachel Blum, author of "The Doctor of Flowers," calls Eric Wertheimer’s poetry "a song of mystery and compassion, a surreal landscape punctuated by ordinary moments by which we gain our bearings, compass points that are disturbing and comforting, sad and love-filled. In this artful and elegant inner dialogue, the reader is privileged to witness an experience that feels both private and collective, that reaches back through history to deliver masterfully from that expanse a precise and intimately felt current time."

Praise for this book

Vibrant with sound, image, body, element, animal and human sense, Eric Wertheimer’s 'Regulus' is language as wit: smart, playful, elegiac, and beautifully, absurdly us.
