North Left of Earth

by Bruce Boston
North Left of Earth by Bruce Boston
⧗ 7.72 / 7

A poetry collection. Illustrated by Marge Simon.

From mutations of our own world, to life on other planets, to journeys through the depths of space, travel with SFPA Grandmaster Poet Bruce Boston as he explores realms North Left of Earth.

"These are the poems of an older, wiser poet who has visited the future and come back to tell all. With insight and dark humor he shares his fantastical encounters with aliens and humans alike, providing in the end a scrapbook full of truly amazing memories. Boston is at the top of his game in North Left Of Earth." – G. O. Clark, author of Strange Vegetables

"North Left of Earth proves once again that Bruce Boston is our great living master of speculative poetry. Poems like his '...People' series and 'Future Texts' show with what perfect pitch he manages to blend the sometimes very different melodies of science fiction and poetry. Phenomenal work – and very enjoyable reads, too." – Howard V. Hendrix, author of Spears of God
