The Long Blue Room, is a splendid powerful collection of poems. Gelfand invites us to see things that we usually overlook… Her mature poetry inspires chuckles (the Parisian returning home to kiss his wife after having just enjoyed a cassoulet and a crisp Sancerre) and will resonate with contemplative souls in her poetic Sangha. After reading William Saroyan years ago, I wanted to meet him, shake his hand and drink a beer with him. I feel the same way about Joan Gelfand. Joel Fallon, Poet Laureate of Benicia, CA (Emeritus)
