Like one of the voices in her dazzling new poetry collection, Maya Dreamwalker continually finds herself hearing without wanting to, as she makes her way through the haze of the ice blue smoke to uncover important truths about human frailty and personal courage. A must read for writers and teachers of English --Nina Wolff, Retired Director of English, Bay Shore Schools, Bay Shore, NY What would they say now that they have dreamed me? History, your tears don't have more validity than mine, Maya Dreamwalker writes as she sets about framing a dreamscape that takes its momentum from the kaleidoscopic back and forth flow of images, one minute bright with fiery anger, the next blue as ice. In what seems like a simultaneous moment, we find people rising up, people being pushed back down, making love, making fury as they struggle to break free of their shackles and chains. This is a book of truth telling in many dimensions, moving toward redemption with each new violation revealed, a book that is at once highly political and deeply personal-a reminder and a wake-up call. --Erika Duncan, Executive and Artistic Director of Herstory, August 2011
