Poetry
Review by Joan Hall: "In Douglas Valentine's A Crow's Dream "there is / No dark side to / The planet anymore." Other mysteries are ominous: "How much of all that seems certain / Could vanish with a word?" The natural world is tangible to Valentine as he prunes trees or watches "ghostly columns of frozen mist arise" from the Contoocook River in winter. Yet all is not lyric. Sinister characters abound, and love is uncertain, although it may redeem you; and, as in Ovid, characters who seem stable change other forms-birds, perhaps. Sometimes Valentine channels Robert Frost, sometimes old ballads, sometimes the Surrealists. So Enjoy! "

Learn how the CIA hijacked federal drug enforcement and, with the help of well placed agents and politicians, turned it into an adjunct of national security.
