About the Book
Editorial Reviews
Review
"His pixilism is a sort of 21st century, digital metaphor that has similarities to French Impressionist paintings. Each sentence represents an idea, image or treatment of the big picture."
--Redding Pilot, May 2010
"Lentz has a talent for...vivid imagery. The result is the literary equivalent of high definition -- the reader is bombarded with rich text that infuses the senses."
--Greenwich Post
"Lentz's approach to writing is soul driven."--The Weston Forum, May 2010
Product Description
Simple, elegant, original poetry about life in a gloriously beautiful, New England town on the coast of Long Island Sound with color photos. The poetry portrays everyday life in Old Greenwich in seeking sea glass, Back Country stone walls, equestrian pursuits, village life, views from walking the shores of the Sound and true love. The full-color photography is tender, evocative and adds depth to the lyrical voice of the poetry.
