Gift: God Runs Through All These Rooms

By Duane Vorhees

A book of poetry, by one "of our most important poets."What Reviewers Write:... a delightful collection of poems! At times playful, at times sober and reflective [on the topics of] friendship, envy, lust, the philosophy of existence, [written] in a voice that is sincere, original, captivating. The reader becomes an explorer, and the exploration brings great joy and value.- Peter Wodarz, Professor, Okinawa Christian University[V]isionary and eclectic [...] [The author's] metaphorical poetry speaks directly to the reader, challenging [...] us to concentrate on lexical progression and his astonishing rhythmic, galloping rhyming scheme, [following] an unknown but intriguing poetic path, passing distant lands and meeting an array of people, cultures and beliefs [...] This is indeed a cinematic journey through the eyes of a world travelling word weaver, who has tasted life's feast and who now throws existential crumbs our way; satisfying our global palette [...] whilst at the same time closing our eyes and bravely attempt to savour unknown poetic flavours.- Don Beukes, Author of The Salamander ChroniclesI kept thinking that I had encountered what could have happened had e.e. cummings and Franz Wright collaborated on a project. Vorhees is a wordsmith who unlocks the subtle meanings - entendres, double and triple - and makes us marvel at the power of language. This is a collection of brilliant poems. [...] [It] is poetry that intends to open the eyes, inform the intellect, and tangle the reader in the intricacies of words. It succeeds. [...] Duane Vorhees emerges as one of our most important poets.- Charlie Brice, Author of Mnemosyne's Hand
