A Grand Book!

Samuel Hazo is arguably the best performer of poetry in America. His distinct baritone and easy pacing make him the lyric crooner of our time. On the page, his poems capture the music and sentiment that make him unique. In As They Sail, we hear Hazo's distinct voice once again. His poems sing about his Middle Eastern background, his hometown of Pittsburgh, the beauty of paintings and the difficulties of growing old. These are poems to be read and treasured.
