Altadena Poetry Review 2019

Starting with the gorgeous cover photo, this anthology pleases the reader’s senses on many levels: the shapes and figurative sounds of the 193 poems and short fiction contained here; their wisdom, insights, humor, pathos, and overall humanity; their compelling pace and relevance. Here are 95 diverse authors–distinguished and emerging, Poets Laureate, Pushcart Prize Nominees, award-winners, editors, professors, performance poets–raising their distinct voices in a book that spotlights the power and beauty of our writing community.
