Miriam D. Dufer Releases Sophomore Book of Poetry: "Stage Left"
Stage Left imbues elements of ballet and music as inspiration, content, and form to explore the rhythms in words and symbolism. Like the illusion of flight in ballet, Stage Left defies the gravitational pull of intensely solemn themes of intolerance, racial identity, miscegenation, and coming of age while working in the constraints of human perception. This is Miriam D. Dufer’s second book of poetry. Coming soon to all major bookstores.
San Francisco, CA, June 01, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Author, Miriam D. Dufer, releases sophomore book of poetry entitled Stage Left. Divided into the 3 sections, Prelude, Interlude, and Coda, Stage Left is an amalgamation of rhythm, music, dance, and universal themes of race, coming of age, and philosophy. With poems such as Lady in Waiting that expresses a woman’s frustration of waiting for Mr. Right, Dufer lamets
"I’ve grown roses in my eyes
To see Adonis, flawless, statuesque
Perched upon the highest hill yet
I Feel disappointment when
I met him
In human form".
