The Storytellers and Other Poems is Thomas Frosch's fourth book of poetry. The poems are organized into several sections. "Journeys" includes a voyage to the childhood of the author's father on New York's Lower East Side, where, among other imaginary and real encounters, he is dispatched to get knishes for Freud and Jung, learns about horse thieves, and witnesses the accidental death of his sister. The section also includes a journey of tricksters from different times and cultures to a banquet; lunch orders of famous authors; and the tale of a detective on assignment in Disneyland. "Time Pieces" includes a series of short poems on the seasons and a variety of dramatic moments like a surprisingly peaceful gathering of different African animals at a desert well, a batter's getting hit by a pitch, and the sound of Covid ambulances on a perfect spring day. The first part of "Adaptations," "Pictures into Words," includes a narrative based on Douglas Anderson's "Desert Plain," which appears on the cover of this volume. The second part, "Words into Other Words," adapts passages by Dante, Chaucer, and Housman, and a beer commercial, and it also includes an updated, two-page version of Schnitzler's 1897 Reigen, in which the lovers communicate by cell phone. In "Storytellers" are various scenes of creativity, written, oral, and visual, including an author's call to a computer help line that turns into an encounter with a muse. Here too is the book's extended title poem that celebrates the small ceramic figurines known as Storytellers. "Close By and Far Away" tells of experiences that are distant in one way and inwardly resonant in another. Death is entertained by a woman who has no respect for him, and whom he comes to miss when she's gone; the famous poetic nightingales of Europe make a sudden appearance in sunshine on Long Island on an ideal day; and a bunch of seaweed makes its slow voyage to immortality in the Sargasso Sea. The poems in the final section, "Taking Care," concern taking care, or not, of others, of the environment, and, as in a poem about a saxophonist practicing in the park, of one's chosen work.

Excerpt from Story-Telling Poems: Selected and Arranged for Story-Telling and Reading Aloud and for the Children's Own Reading There is an inexhaustible source of fine story-telling material to be found in narrative poetry. Fables, myths, legends, tales, roman tic or historical in treatment, are told in rhythmic form, and often in a logical manner that makes it easy to retell the plots. If the story-teller learns her story by read ing over and over again a ballad or other story-telling poem, and retells the same in simple prose paraphrase, she will find that her vocabulary is enriched, and that the rhythm of the original lends a swing and added charm to her prose rendering of the poem.

Storyteller is the third collection of stories written in verse by David Hamilton. Each story is told by a historical figure to convey allegory, symbolism and metaphor, with the author as the overarching narrator. The book takes readers on a journey through imaginative worlds where the reader witnesses experiences and meets people they would meet in their own lives. “Listeners live this as a communal story, a shared history that makes us part of it. Isolation is filled in, emotions link the community. Would our communal lives Make an interesting play?” David’s unique collection aligns contemporary content with traditional poetic forms, linking the two together to provide a social commentary on the modern world. Such technique can be witness in ‘The Lotus Eaters’, a story that first appeared in Homer’s Odyssey. Circe’s transformation of men into swine is here presented as escapism through drugs. David has also updated other traditional stories such as Reynard the Fox to tell the story from the fox’s point of view, and Chaucer’s The Hall of Fame. The collection concludes with a sequence of seven Pastorals, featuring myths and deities from classical times telling practical stories of husbandry. David’s latest collection of poetry is wordly and not academic, and presents readers with a unique combination of traditional forms and contemporary content. The book will appeal to fans of poetry, as well as readers that have enjoyed David’s previous works, King Alfred's Jewel (Matador, 2014) and Concept Poems (Matador, 2016). David has contributed essays to the New English Review and Storyteller is advertised in the Literary Review.

For over a decade, many of the stories and poems I have written eventually turned into songs, and for that, I am grateful. Over the past year, much of what I have written has turned into letters: letters to people, their stories, and the seasons they are in. Even though I suppose, technically, what you will find in this book is considered poetry, I hope they read as letters: letters for people, places, things, seasons, years-letters for the story and for the storyteller. There are one hundred poem letters in this book. I share them with you because I believe you have a story to tell, and I hope these poem letters encourage you to keep telling it. -Morgan Harper Nichols Writer, Artist, Musician

Everyone should write a story, or a song, or a poem. Everyone should paint a picture or make a sculpture. Everyone should sing, or dance, or play a musical instrument. We all need to do something apart from work. Artistic talent and training help. However, that piece of ourselves that goes into what we do is the all-important ingredient. The author makes but one suggestion. Read the poems aloud.
