Cuarentena

Arts & Literature

“Reading Stephen Lang's Cuarentena is like walking beside a well-traveled plowman. With language that is sharp and sculpted, he tills the soil of the human story with an eye to reckoning and redemption. When he pokes the fires of myth and mortality, his posture is wise and questioning. Cuarentena is a salient and enjoyable collection of both earth and soul, an apt reflection of the pandemic season in which it is written.”

Tales of Telemachus

Arts & Literature

“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.”
