This is the America, the Jewry, they know in its living reality...It would be difficult to find an aspect of life untouched by her sometimes mocking, always loving pen.-Minneapolis's American Jewish World Mollee Kruger... Poet Laureate of the American Jewish Press.-Jewish Week ... best thing that has happened to light verse since Dorothy Parker.-Gabe Levenson, editor/critic In this poetry collection, Mollee Kruger muses on everything from the Jewish people as "marathon runners" to the Statue of Liberty's important message to the world. Some of Kruger's poems are playful and epigrammatic. Others deliver undeniable truths about human nature and the state of contemporary cultural identity. Although each poem speaks directly to you and doesn't mince words, certain fanciful verses may be taken with a grain of kosher salt! Octogenarian Kruger keeps her gentle humor intact in pointed observations about everything from cybersecurity to the spirituality of dogs. Some insightful poems are guaranteed to make you smile. Others will spark powerful emotions and force you to think about your community and your own identity. Each offers the simple gift of a whimsical idea, a wise word, or a different way of looking at the world.
