POETRYThe Blue Moon SeriesPoemsRodger Martin Illustrations by Chad GoweyThe Blue Moon Series is an unusual and elegant chapbook. It isa collection of fourteen poems, each devoted to a particularfull moon in a complete cycle (which takes thirteen months and normally includes at least one Blue Moon). The poems are linked by season and moon, and this serves as a departure point to locations both European and American, times both ancient and present. The illustrations by artist Chad Gowey brilliantly reinforce that reach.

This poem, like those in Hennedy’s Variations on a Natural Theme (page 10), will appeal to those who love poetry’s ability to evoke place, people, and time, and then move beyond them. Truly “a memoir in verse,” 314 Franklin is a tribute to both the small and the big things in life, and the power of poetry to transform them.isbn 978-0-9845921-0-4 Chapbook, 24 pages $10.00603-672-4317 A publisher of fine books that will change your world • 13Pocket-sized book with French-fold flaps!
