The California Poem
This collection should have broad regional appeal in California and is highly anticipated in the poetry community (its publication has been mentioned in a number of journals and magazines and the author has given some interviews about the book). Its strong environmental message will also broaden its appeal. * A definite candidate for major awards * Eleni Sikelianos was included in a Glamour Magazine article titled “Women Are Making Poetry Hot Again”
