Sleepwalker's Songs, Poems by James Cervantes Homeward Bound by Howard Waskow
Sleepwalker's Songs: New and Selected Poems by James Cervantes
James Cervantes's Sleepwalker's Songs seems so sane, its light so much that of the quotidian, that it is only with a certain shock (like that produced by a dream remembered) that one realizes what one has really experienced
- T.R. Hummer
Cervantes, one can reasonably assume, believes longing is its own music. Be forewarned. These are the poems of someone who knows the dangers in such music and has chosen to dance to it anyway.
- Sam Pereira
Homeward Bound: Seeking Satisfaction in the Family by Howard Waskow.
"Readers are accompanied by a wise guide on a journey to understand more deeply the sources of disappointment in their family relationships and to discover potential paths to greater satisfaction in the family and in intimate relationships more generally.."
—Irene Elkin, PhD Professor Emerita, University of Chicago, Psychotherapy Researcher

There was a wine and cheese party launching Homeward Bound by Howard Waskow with Bell Chevigny, Jan Clausen, Arthur Waskow, Dan Waskow, Phyllis Berman and Barbara Kane on Wednesday, November 14 at 7 p.m. at Book Culture between Broadway and Amsterdam in New York City. In Homeward Bound, Howard weaves together three strands of experience with family issues, a trained literary critic's grasp of how great literature illuminates family life, and insights from thirty years of work as a psychotherapist into joys, disasters, and moments of deep healing in widely varied families. Howard was already gravely ill when he learned that Hamilton Stone Publishers had accepted Homeward Bound. He asked his brother Arthur to shepherd the book to publication. This event was a celebration of Howard's writing, the lifework it represents, and its public availability, thanks to his brother's dedication.

Eva Kollisch's book mentioned in The Forward
Excellent first review of Sleepwalker's Songs in Hinchas de Poesia
Hamilton Stone Author Leora Skolki-Smith was interviewed about her work from the perspective of being an "Israeli-American" writer. She says this is a label she doesn't use, "but it was interesting to look at things from that place inside." The interview is available online in a piece about the new International Journal Jewishnet, published by Nora Gold: http://www.algemeiner.com/2012/09/19/jewish-fiction-finds-a-new-home-on-the-internet/ Jewish Fiction Finds a New Home on the Internet

Hamilton Stone author Leora Skolkin-Smith is Finalist for Three Major E-Books Awards for her novel
HYSTERA. The 2012 International Book Award, the National Indie Excellence Award; and the upcoming Global E-Books Award, 2012, which will be announced on August 18, 2012, in Santa Barbara, CA. Ms. Skolkin-Smith has said about these recent accolades, "I think the awards attest to the fact that the publishing landscape is changing radically through the growing acceptance of e-books as well as a new approach to marketing titles of literary merit that don't meet commercial standards and don't fall into "brand-name" status with traditional publishers and reviewers. There seems to be a critical mass of independent writers who have distanced themselves from the mainstream. " Her novel with Hamilton Stone, THE FRAGILE MISTRESS, is currently in pre-production as a film with Triboro Pictures directed by Michael Gunther.
