Publisher's Description
Tales of Telemachus begins with a door closing and finishes with one left open. In between, the reader becomes a partner in a wide-ranging journey, a search, a quest. Expect tight, lyrical, and literate poetry. Expect to laugh and likewise be appalled, to be touched but also challenged. Don't expect to be provided answers but don't be surprised if you find some . . .

“It’s a mystery how Steve Lang, a married father of three and director of an international school, finds time to write poetry, but we should all be grateful he does. His latest collection, Tales of Telemachus, is his most daring and diverse, prosaic and artistic, humorous and haunting, gentle and brutal, reverent and profane. Every reader will find something to appreciate or relate to in this collection from the criminally underread Lang.”
“Tales of Telemachus intelligently explores what it means to be human. Through doorways of myth and daily observation, Stephen Lang explores everything from Thor’s hammer, to a hummingbird, to family, and to what we leave behind. Lang lays himself down in silence to better see the beauty and brokenness of our world. Read this collection and travel along an ancient road that leads to our common heritage—to know, and to be known—in a fresh way.”
