New Work by Maine Poet Now Available

(Dresden Mills, ME) Wesli Court is the anagram pen-name under which poet Lewis Putnam Turco of Dresden Mills writes his traditionally formal verse. “As reverent as it is irreverent, this charming cycle of poems brings dead poets to life and life to dead poets. Here is a guild of the centuries, by no means a 'tradition,' but a bond, rather — unbroken and ongoing — among brother and sister practitioners of an art that has always spoken life to death.” — Albert J. von Frank, co-editor, the Harvard Variorum Edition of The Poems of Ralph Waldo Emerson.

About Lewis Turco
Lewis Turco received his B. A. from the University of Connecticut in 1959 and his M. A. from the University of Iowa in 1962. In 2000 he received a first honorary degree, Doctor of Humane Letters, from Ashland University, and a second in 2009 from the University of Maine at Fort Kent. His poems, essays, stories and plays have appeared in most of the major literary periodicals over more than a half-century, and in over one hundred books and anthologies.

Epitaphs for the Poets by Lewis Turco; Baltimore, MD: BrickHouse Books, 2012, 85 pages, trade paperback, ISBN: 978-1-938144-01-1, $15.00.
