In Search of the Emerald City
Author: Stan Rogal
"In Emerald
City, Stan Rogal brings his incongruous vision to
bear on a set of our modern myths: Oz, Rimbaud, Van Gogh.
The results are, like his other writings, entertaining,
disturbing and full of insight."
~ Lionel Kearns
"Despite his incredible
output, Toronto writer Stan Rogal doesn't get the attention
he deserves. Following traditions of the open form and book
as unit as composition as set down by bpNichol, Jack Spicer
and Judith Fitzgerald, Rogal weaves a highly intelligent
and playful art that is easily on par with anything his
heroes have achieved. He is a poet not to be overlooked."
