"How does one translate a life into verse? How does one capture beauty in human form? How does one evade death? According to Myrlin A. Hermes’s The Lunatic, the Lover, and the Poet, one way is through the pen—or rather, the quill. [...] Hermes seduces the reader’s imagination with twisted trysts, highbrow humor, and gender mix-ups—all lusciously Shakespearian in construct and wit."
-- Veronica Martin, Portland Monthly Magazine

Thanks to Portland Monthly Magazine for a lovely review of the book! It will be appearing on newsstands in the January issue, but you can read the whole thing now on their website.
