      Asia & Haiti presents two long poems by Los Angeles poet Will Alexander, which, in the broadest sense, are about the cultures, economics, politics, history, and social concerns of the title regions.Alexander's poetry presents a remarkable re-writing of a history. Caught up in the vortex of a surrealist vision and tornadoes of language, his words call up an American equivalent of Aime Cesaire.

      The Dialogics remains an investigation that blazes with insight. Heller Levinson and Will Alexander condense dialogue to such a degree that its internal beacon dazzles with ideas. They spontaneously retain natural inevitability igniting idea after idea so that they seem to blur and then crystallize ad infinitum. This brief book of condensed insight seems always to conjoin with the reader not through didactic engendering but via lingual spell that is vertiginous by nature and so by its power of verbal irrigation leaves internal identity powerfully cleansed.

      Life doesn't end. Reality isn't fixed. Time doesn't work the way you think. Even the universe, despite its size, is surprisingly aware of and attuned to each of us. Then come those moments when all boundaries dissolve, worlds merge, and we are given glimpses into how connected everything is. Call Me Jonah is the story of an ordinary man who experiences such extraordinary moments starting in childhood and then continue throughout his lifetime. Afraid of ridicule, he keeps hidden what he learns from each mystical encounter for decades. Until a random meeting with street prophet ultimately convinces him to share his journey and the remarkable insights acquired along the way. Only God could write a story so touching as this through the words of Will Alexander. -- Courtney Force, author of Soul Dancer
