ÒThe Moons of Kashar... is a journey into the soul and its power to transmogrify inner vision... The visionary Doraine Poretz brings together a poetic rendering through the fabric of myth and magic... toward our fear of knowing and ultimate truth.Ó
-Lois P. Jones, host of KPFKÕs Poets Cafe, poetry editor of Kyoto Journal
ÒWe could say about poets, that the good ones say wise things, but the great ones say things wisely. Such a poet is Doraine PoretzÉShe throws her net wide to include the greater longing for existence.Ó
-Jack Grapes, poet, author of All The Sad Angels
ÒDoraine Poretz knows the secrets of stones, the passions of Òvoluptuous winds.Ó Where there are myths and fairy tales to be found, she will unearth them and paint them in glorious colors. Her poetry stretches like a shining river over death and life all at once, transcending both.Ó
-Alice Pero, poet, founder of the Moonday Poetry Series
