PSOV member N.G. Haiduck’s new poetry collection, Moon Over the Cross Bronx Expressway is now available on Finishing Line Press’s bookstore.
“N.G. Haiduck shows a keen eye for the less than obvious, a discreet empathy for people that takes the form of observation, listening, and a sense of place as significant and specific… the strata of decades lived there as a young and less young woman, lover, mother, jazz buff, distiller of stories and memories, embodied in pain as in joy. Like another jazz-loving poet, Hayden Carruth, Haiduck is equally comfortable with a supple, short-lined free verse, with ballad stanzas, with the sonnet as a narrative vehicle. Like him too, she is aware, and makes her readers aware, that each recorded observation, each lyric transformation, is our collective and cultural history…”
