Description:

Poetry. "The volume is a condensed, chiseled little box of miraculously moving poems, more American in essence, in spite of their travel content. Like a Sufi, his writing is an excursion into the world of dualities and the myriad colours of the sky, the earth and the world we live in. It is a delight to see in this slim volume the vital vistas of the earth conjured in his ennobling images to cherish, preserve and celebrate the imagined secrets of our formidable voyages."--Yuyutsu Sharma

"There is so much wisdom in Robert Scotto's new collection of poems, IMAGINED SECRETS: NEW POEMS. Consider this, from 'Wisdom': '...The advice / Of the old is like the winter's sun: / It brings some light, but little warmth.' 'Wisdom' notwithstanding, there is also warmth. In 'Serenade in Argentina,' Scotto writes to a life partner, 'I miss you even when you are near / because you are never near enough.' Like the Van Gogh of his 'VG,' Scotto suffers 'to perfection' in these poems, with 'vibrant ecstatic pain.' And it's with vibrant ecstatic pain that the poet experiences the impermanence of his time here on earth, a sense that the reader experiences working through this slim but densely packed volume."--Tim Tomlinson
