Pictures, Postcards, Letters continues Lennart Lundh's vital work at the intersection of poetry and humanity. His sensitivity and keen eye make for another engaging read. Our world needs more of this.

—John Burroughs, Ohio Beat Poet Laureate

This book checks all the boxes of what poetry should be and do. In Lundh’s own words, “The writer’s job is current truth, which later the editor redacts, the historian improves by deletion, and the fireman washes in flames.” This collection is a rare form of “current truth” redacted and washed in flames by the poet. At the heart of this work are relationships and memories brought to life by images, history, experience. As the dedication reads, this book is truly, “For those who write for those who read.”

—Jane L. Carman, Founder of Festival of Language, Lit Fest Press, and a reading eXperiment

We live in a world more in need of poetry than ever before. From the onslaught of divisiveness and loss in our daily news to the relentless wounding of more personal loss, Lennart Lundh, with careful crafting, looks deeply into both our individual and collective pain, refusing to let us look away, a gentle challenge that to survive, to rise, to thrive, we cannot let ourselves not see, not seek. He reveals the history we are made of, reminding us that healing only comes in acknowledgment. And there is so much healing here, the real strength to be found in gentleness, the power in empathy, and the courage and community of compassion. With touches of myth and mystery, and in language that's both lyric and accessible, Lundh holds out his hand, asking us to join him as “healers of other folks' maladies,” in a collection that dares us and comforts us, that ultimately lifts in praise of what it means to be human. Pictures, Postcards, Letters is a love letter to the world, at a time when we so desperately need Lundh's magic, Love with a capital L.

—Mary Carroll-Hackett, author of Death for Beginners, Trailer Park Oracle, and The Night I Heard Everything
