"From the Paris of New England: Interviews with Poets and Writers" by Doug Holder

( Click on to order book) Many of the interviews in this new collection took place on: "Poet to Poet Writer to Writer" "At a time when many newspapers--if not going out of business altogether,have cut arts coverage, it's reassuring to see that poet Doug Holder works as the arts editor for The Somerville News....Readers will likely find something of interest among the varied genres and experiences represented here, especially because Holder knows how to ask the important questions"-- Jeanne Lesinski ( NEW PAGES.COM) "Loved the interviews in your new book--very interesting to read all these different artists pov's about the craft, life, etc... I thought it was lovely to include Sarah Hannah, she had a rich, beautiful unique poet's voice. It's truly heartbreaking it ended that way." Susan Tepper--author of "Deer and other Stories" "Engrossing Read."--Chiron Review
