About the Book
In this stellar collection, Philip Terman manages to combine the melancholy and the sensuous, to grieve and to celebrate, and to augment his old-world faith with gentle paganism.

–Leslie Ullman, Poetry

Terman is a fine cantor of the natural world…. These are wise worthwhile poems.

–Peter Makuck, The Laurel Review

Personal experience acquires the monumentality of mythology…. Here is a resolution that shifts between history and modernity, between old and new conceptions of Judaism, binding the generations.

–Jehanne Dubrow, Prairie Schooner
