Rich Marcello's first collection, The Long Body That Connects Us All, is reminiscent of Merwin. I love how meditative and Buddhist so many of the poems feel, and there's a cool sort of self-deprecating wisdom throughout the work that will resonate with a wide audience of men and women.
Rebecca Givens Roland - Author of The Wreck of Birds
Rich is a poet, a songwriter and musician, a creative writing teacher at Seven Bridges' Writer Collaborative, and the author of three novels, The Color of Home, The Big Wide Calm, and The Beauty of the Fall. Previously, he enjoyed a successful career as a technology executive, managing several multi-billion dollar businesses for Fortune 500 companies.
As anyone who has read Rich's work can tell you, his books deal with life's big questions: love, loss, creativity, community, aging, self-discovery. His novels are rich with characters and ideas, crafted by a natural storyteller, with the eye and the ear of a poet. For Rich, writing and art making is about connection, or as he says, about making a difference to a least one other person in the world, a goal he strives to achieve each day as an artist and a teacher.
Rich lives in Massachusetts on a lake with his family and two Newfoundlands, Ani and Shaman. He is currently working on his fourth novel, The Latecomers.
