Jeffrey Kane's "life as a novice" is a stirring poetic account of a father's transcendence over grief at the sudden death of his beloved son. Roger Rosenblatt writes: "Jeff Kane's poems have the brevity and the power of Emily Dickinson's, but they come from a different sorrow and a different endurance. They make you weep and clap. Mainly, they make you feel." Judith Baumel comments: "'life as a novice' is a moving examination of grief's journey. Fierce, philosophical and lyrical, it embraces Eastern and Western traditions and speaks as powerfully as Emerson's 'Threnody.'" About the Author: Jeffrey Kane, Ph. D., is the Vice President for Academic Affairs at Long Island University. His scholarly work has focused on the intuitive and imaginative elements of human knowledge. He lives on Long Island with his wife and two children, Emily and Jesse. This is his first volume of poetry.
