Produktbeschreibung
ALMANAC OF RECKONING is a collection of lyrics that charts the intersections between observation and experience, memory and desire, loss and consequence. Its poems resonate with the sights and sounds of nature viewed through the human emotions of passion, grief, and remorse.

Autorenporträt
Sandra Salinas Newton has published over sixty poems in both online and print journals as well as two introductory texts about poetry and film and, most recently, three literary novels that focus on protagonists who are driven, in part, by the historical circumstances of their lives. She will also be publishing a second chapbook in the coming months. A list of her publications is available on her website, https://s-newton.com/about-the-author/ Dr. Newton, now retired, has taught English composition, literature, media, and film at various colleges throughout her thirty year-plus career and even pioneered the teaching of composition on computers at one institution in the 1990s. She has lived in various places in the world, but her heart remains with New York City where she was born and raised; her novel, Inevitable, recreates that city as it was in the mid 1960s for a pair of unusual lovers.
