"How many Christopher Lunas are there? The bard, the community dynamo, the scholar, the compassionate one, the jazz quartet, the father & lover, the world of a man: all and more are speaking in this book. So many perspectives to experience here, so much to learn about literature, attitude, action and beauty. The maestro of Ghost Town has created a bustling, radiant and necessary environment." - Dan Raphael

Exchanging Wisdom features poems for and about Christopher's son Angelo Luna, as well as a few pieces Angelo wrote for Christopher. The earliest poem was written when Angelo was three, and the most recent at age 21. Christopher endeavored to encourage his son to be an autonomous, freethinking individual. Angelo grew to become that and so much more. Taken as a whole, the poems in this collection track the development of Angelo's personality and the strong bond between father and son. "In this triumphant call-and-response love letter between father and son, the epic journey of the heart is explored in wisdom, witness, wonder, actualization, and kindness. I wept at the depth of connection I traveled in this lifesaving, life-affirming journey. This collection gives it to us real and pure. Our world is so much better for it." -Sage Cohen, author of Fierce on the Page "Christopher Luna is a true heir to the Beat and New York School traditions of candor and grandeur. This collaboration and celebration of life runs on impeccable timing and deep love As Luna and his son Angelo exchange wisdom they also re-invent the meaning of open verse: these poems crack open the heart and spill the joy of parenthood into the world." -Lisa Jarnot, author of Robert Duncan, the Ambassador from Venus "One day you're gonna have to...remind me how to believe in the basic goodness of all beings, Christopher Luna tells his son, Angelo. More than a collection of father-son poems, Exchanging Wisdom is a record of gratitude. In every poem Luna's love beams." -Claudia F. Savage, author of Bruising Continents
