Reviews
Poems are the flowers of our souls...Perhaps Diane's book will be part of the beginning of a new wave of appreciation for this art form.
—Shekinah Mountainwater, from the cover
Poetry, when it's good, is simultaneously personal and universal--quite a lot to ask from something that is often less than a paragraph long...I can recommend Stein's book unreservedly. Lambda Award Nominee
