About this title

Synopsis

On the poetry of Gerry Grubbs:

"At the heart of this entanglement between nature and self, between memory and existence, lies mystery….(And … we are invited to join … on a different journey."--Joseph Tomain

"I realize that The Palace Of Flowers is actually a book about a specific Desire to collapse time so there is no distance. (It) succeeds because it offers poems so lovely the reader easily inhabits them."--Eileen Tabios
