Review :
In Fresh Light, Jim Seegert presents a dynamic collection of pocket-sized vignettes of our pop culture. This slim but weighty volume is infused with the rhythms that formed our times-part poetry, part documentary and a tribute to the many artists and events that helped shape the last half-century. It is presented using a seasoned storyteller's voice, a uniquely distinctive one that will speak directly to the readers of all generations. Sal Cataldi, Contributor to NY Times, Rolling Stone and PopMatters In Fresh Light, Jim Seegert brings the reader to face memories as though they were their own and often, as if they were happening in real time. Vivid, descriptives bring the stories and poems to life; the reader is witness to exchanges, motions and emotions, and by design, the reader often becomes a part of the story. J R Turek, author of 9 poetry books, Long Island Poet of the Year (2019). I've been a fan of Jim Seegert since I first encountered his work. Reading through his collection, I'm struck anew by the qualities that first drew me to his writing-his vivid sense of place, his plain-spoken directness, and his remarkable skill as a storyteller. Because Jim, no matter what he writes-poetry, prose, memory, imagination, or his own highly individual blend of all these things-is a storyteller, and his work always has a vibrant story percolating within it. Jim's writing invites you into familiar worlds for you to see with a fresh perspective, and unfamiliar worlds that you feel like you've always known-but didn't realize it until Jim put them down on paper. -Peter Ullian, 2019-2020 City of Beacon Poet Laureate Jim's words warmed my heart. His memories, in these poems, are precise retellings, and that makes for great art. He goes from Chinatown to Flagstaff, Arizona, in one beautiful fell swoop. His journey through fixing his kitchen becomes ours. We end up at the Seaport Museum and wave goodbye to him as he retires to the Hudson Valley, leaving behind all these fantastic constructs. This is an amazing book! --Ron Kolm, Author, contributing editor of Sensitive Skin.
