The new poetry collection from Maine writer Gregory Richard Barden is astounding in its lyrical quality and emotional depth. Building on the success of his previous collection Melancholy Moon (2024) Barden approaches love, life, death and spirituality from a darker and strangely fantastical direction. New York author Peter Rivers notes: 'I wandered through lush atmospheres and imaginative landscapes-through fantasies, histories, and memories. Gregory Richard Barden has a rare talent for poetic storytelling. His command of language, coupled with an effortless sense of meter and flow, create works that have you quickly engaged, then fully immersed.' Here is what others have said about Shadow of the Moon: 'Ride the tides and swim beyond the dark side with resident moon man Gregory Richard Barden as he unleashes mysteries in this stellar collection of modern renaissance poetry.' -Matt Elmore, Author of Constellation Road 'Mr. G is a constant inspiration to me and my music ... and reveals with this book that there is, indeed, beauty in the darkness.' -John Klemmer, Saxophonist and Composer 'Gregory Richard Barden is an immaculate craftsman of words. His fixed form, rhyming poems and his free verse poems combine sumptuous words with an elegant, smooth flow.' -Iain Strachan, Author of Light Will Return 'Shadow of the Moon is brimming with delicious visceral and vital images that go straight to the heart. His beautifully rhythmic stories are salty and sanguine.'
- Nat Warren-White, Author of Slocum's Wake 'Shadow of the Moon is a wonderful work that should be part of any collection of contemporary poetry.' -Corey Allen, Composer and Producer 'Some books explain the human condition. This one inhabits it. Shadow Of The Moon moves through grief and desire, wilderness and wonder, the sacred and the savage.' -Amanda Martin, Marketing Strategist 'Gregory Richard Barden again affirms his artistry of the pen. 'Shadow of the Moon' skillfully opens the gates to the many dark vestibules of the mind.' -Dr Cliff Neal 'Gregory's sweet melancholy words offer a respite of stillness and beauty in a world of noise and confusion.' -Jessica Ferreira Coury Magalhães, Poet and Author
