Traveling, Traveling is a book of poems in love with movement, movements of all kinds, movement from one geographical location to another, transportations, movements by dream, biological progressions from youth to middle age to old age, movements that form a grand arc from one generation to another. We are a species that does not stand still, curious as we are, restless, traveling in so many ways and directions, nomadic, migratory. But to travel, the poems insinuate, to cross boundaries into other modes of being and emotional gratifications, refreshes our sense of the world, helps us fall in thrall with our lives again, makes us eager tourists of our own transitory time on earth. -Gregory Djanikian, author of Sojourners of the In-Between and So I Will Till the Ground The poems that make up Nadell Fishman's Traveling, Traveling give us evocative glimpses into her journeying from childhood and family life-with their profusion of memories-into adulthood and travels into foreign lands with their attendant sorrows, deep pleasures, and, at bottom, amazement. -Merrill Leffler, author of Mark the Music Nadell Fishman's new book of poetry invites the reader to share a thoughtful conversation about life and art. She reflects on her family's Jewish past: parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles, all those who helped her to shape who she is today. She travels to Paris and takes us with her. Nadell Fishman has a keen eye and a strong voice as she constructs her world. The power of her poetry makes it our world too. -Madeleine M. Kunin, Former Governor of Vermont, Author of Coming of Age, My Journey to the Eighties; Author of poetry collection Red Kite, Blue Sky
