This volume well represents Paraclete\u2019s program with selections from those books and a few new or newly translated poems by their authors. By far the most famous of its poets is Rainer Maria Rilke, translated by editor Burrows, though the Polish Anna Kamienska (1920\u201396), Irishman Thomas Lynch, the Iranian-German SAID, and the Wisconsin Episcopal monk, Father John-Julian, are either also better-known or deserve to be. The late Phyllis Tickle, Publishers Weekly\u2019s first religion editor, and the well-known literary biographer, Paul Mariani, are also Paraclete poets. Altogether, the range of poetic expression here encompasses spiritual journaling, prayer, legends and biography, visionary and ordinary mysticism, nature-contemplation, and, of course, prayer, as well as formally relaxed and precise individual poems. A worthy showcase. \u2014 Ray Olson<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/paraclete.leadpages.co\/pp-anthology\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1951 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.paracletepress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/9064.jpg\" alt=\"9064\" width=\"461\" height=\"687\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Booklist Online Exclusive: March 10, 2017 The Paraclete Poetry Anthology: New and Selected Poems.
