Julian Gallo's new poetry chapbook now available from Propaganda Press. It's a journey of finding one's self, jumping the hurdles and learning the path; the setting is left mostly to the reader's imagination, while the descriptions delight and intrigue. Poems about love, dissecting ethnic backgrounds and cultures passed down through the centuries; trying to come up with ideas and inspiration for writing and life, even through the rains and the mundane mendacity of everyday living; an anatomizing of the self, the assertion, the dichotomy of being, developing the ability to know your own next move, to put the puzzle together, even if it reveals nothing. The words are searching, questioning, sometimes answering (but only subtly), and introspective - revealing the small bits of madness that make us who we are and make the author pen these words. Copies can now be purchased online; or through the mail for $5 (plus $2 US shipping; $3 out-of-US shipping) via cash, check, or money order made out to Alternating Current, PO Box 398058, Cambridge MA 02139 USA; or via PayPal with the email address alt.current@gmail.com.
