Edited by Zachary M. Oliver, "First Breath," is, as its title suggests, is an eclectic collection of different, intersecting world points-of-view expressed through poetry.

"If prose is the bones, muscles and sinews, then poetry is the very soul of written works, and 'First Breath' clearly reflects that enlivened, struggling-to-escape spirit," says editor and contributor, Zachary M. Oliver.

"Savant Books and Publications is proud to introduce these outstanding, new and established poets to the reading public. Many are authors with published or soon-to-be-released prose works. In a age where shorter, reflective readings are less-known and available to readers than in the past, these selected poems, I believe, each shine tall and proud. I make it a point to take a moment from my busy day and relax, enjoy, and cherish these sometimes vista-like, sometimes incisive, sometimes quirky looks at life as it truly is," says Editor-in-Chief and Owner of Savant Books and Publications, Daniel S. Janik.

First Breath edited by Zachary M. Oliver - 72 pages - 8.25" x 5." Color softcover. ISBN 978-098-455-5222. Suggested retail price $10.95. Released by Savant Books and Publications, Honolulu, Hawaii, USA.
