Part I contains 17 poems of personal reflection from Edgar Allan Poe and his Bronx cottage 'Poetry in Transformation'; soul-draining office work ('x-mas greetings on oppression!'); opera ('Omaggio'); and art and politics in the Reagan years ('re: public rhetoric'). Remember: magic tricks & cowboys,/the Wild West, riding off into the sunset/while joking about RR. Part II opens with a narrative poem on the the 1913 Paterson workers' strike. Later, in 'New York Trilogy,' Mr. Quinn reflects on a photograph (reproduced in the book) of his great-grandfather as a manager of the Landmark Tavern, circa 1900. 'NY Trilogy III' evoked the spirit of Stephane Mallarme in its use of text placement as a visual element, creating a moving poem on the loss of the Twin Towers while elevating the work to that of a visual art piece. Book production is nicely done, from the cover design and drawing of hands by Thomas Micchelli to the feel of the paper within. All in all, organized labor is a labor of love to family, art, and history: an admirable first book.
