Myself and Others and the World Guy B Stiles

Guy B. Stiles' work spans several decades. His published works include The Oranges from Santo Domingo, Letters to Ezra and Walking on the World. He is a metaphysical philosopher poet and essayist influenced by poets, as well as religious, scientific and philosophical thinkers. He is in the school of Wallace Stevens, Ronald Collins and William Bronk. He is not part of academia and has been an independent thinker and writer because of that. Guy, now in his eighties, lives in Puerto Rico with his wife, Sari. Reflections on the 1991 publication of Stiles' The Oranges from Santo Domingo: "I was very pleased to have the book and enjoyed reading it. You write plainly and clearly with your heart and mind both in it." William Bronk, American Book Award winning poet "They startle me with their insights and calm me with their profundity. I like the way he makes concentrated language feel as easy as the truest idiom. The Biblical, Greek and existential so assimilated into his awareness that they seem like just other neighbors." A. R. Ammons, National Book Award for Poetry winner Response to the 2015 publication of Letters to Ezra and Walking on the World: "Letters to Ezra forced me to reexamine how we got to where we are. Then Walking on the World placed your thinking in a wider context that encompasses all of what we can know. Thoroughly enjoyable and provoking." Ronald W. Collins, Scientist and Poet
