Ever wonder what a book would be like if the roles were reversed?

If, instead of the Author or Publishing House being the ones to select what the content of a book should, or should not contain, we turn to our readers to make that selection...

What then would those books turn out to be like?

It was a question of curiosity that Keith E. Sparks Jr. felt the need to explore. By inviting his readers to select small collections of his poetry based on their favorite aspects of his work, he allows his supporters the ability to become part of a book creation process with collections to be released as Reader's Choice books...

Each of these volumes are compiled based on selections from a single reader and bound together in collections presented to the world, created in reverse...with Readers calling the shots...

Cygnus Gleams is the first of these exploratory collections brought to life through poetry selected by Jyoti Nair...

Very few poetic voices quiver in your discerning senses as Aspen leaves, author Keith Sparks' poems are such...

As I try to decipher my aforementioned perspective, I recall having read that Aspen leaves are related to 'wind, endurance, and resurrection', and at that tangent, I am startled, while I ponder, aren't those the inherent traits of Keith's figurative narratives as well...

This compilation titled Cygnus Gleams is an eclectic palette of marvelous poems that I have narrowed down from Keith's multitudinous poetry repository. This set constitutes poems that have resonated the most with me, as an avid reader of the author's phenomenal work.

The book's concept is experimental as much as it's enriching, as it reaffirms the significant roles that readers play in a writers landscape. I can vouch for the ascendency of these splendid verses nonchalantly, with absolute poise, that they will conquer your hearts...
