I wish upon these bitter laments, these subtle raindrops pattering across perfectly indifferent parchment paper, a breath of life... May power be present in my pen's stroke, and song belted out with every supple verse; luscious chorus of violent embrace, vibrating in a golden haze, like the hummingbird as he skims across a brilliant sunset and casts his melancholy shadow across the landscape of time and space: even sadness has its place.... Born from the embers of ashen periodsin the author's life, So Cried the Wolfjourneys into the darker expanses of human experience. Told overa span of over 120 poems, each representing its own threadof thought, emotion, sensation, wit, and, sometimes, wisdomin thismeticulously composed tapestry, this collectiontellsa dynamictaleofsuffering and healing. Influenced by literary figures and thinkers as wide ranging as Bukowski, Sartre, Aurelius, H.D. Thoreau, andNietzsche, So Cried the Wolfis a two-part, illustrated collection that interweaves personal experience withexistential philosophical and psychological themes to createa lushand intricatework of poetry. Complexly woven, deeply reflective, and sometimes outright biting, So Cried the Wolf is a vitalcontribution to the modern poetry scene. So Cried the Wolf is written, edited, illustrated, and self-published by upcoming Canadian author and multidisciplinary artist J. Faolan.
