REFUGEES OF YESTERYEAR

About the Book

In this, his 4th full collection of verse, Gregory Wm. Gunn further examines the human condition. Mr. Gunn has a gifted insight and a vivid mythopoeia as the reader explores his unique brand of writing with a sense of wonder and imagination. Gunn mixes modern free verse styles with time-proven poetic forms to achieve a dazzling overall effect. Just as in The "Rest is Silence", his 3rd book, "Refugees of Yesteryear" is colorfully emblazoned in extended metaphor. Whether it is a traditional form or more contemporary one, Mr. Gunn is at ease eloquently expressing himself.
