New article on re-release/third edition of "An Epiphany in Lilacs"
Not that anyone on this platform seems to care (oh well) but I thought I'd post this beautiful article in the current editions of the Jewish Standard and New Jersey Jewish News. It's on the re-release/third edition of "An Epiphany in Lilacs" and why it warrants republication more than ever. Thank you to the Jewish Standard for the piece and to my publisher Sunbury for republishing my book. https:/

“I think I could turn and live with animals, they are so placid and self-contain’d, I stand and look at them long and long.
They do not sweat and whine about their condition, They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins, They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God, Not one is dissatisfied, not one is demented with the mania of owning things, Not one kneels to another, nor to his kind that lived thousands of years ago, Not one is respectable or unhappy over the whole earth.”
― Leaves of Grass: The Death-Bed Edition
