In the green days of youth--in another life and in a far land--Jack Dann was invited to participate in Native American religious ceremonies and culture. And in that far country of the past Jack experienced numinous moments and small revelations that changed his life and his art. Some of those distant moments and visceral wisdoms are encapsulated in
Poems From a White Heart...a lifetime's distillation of poems birthed in the ice and fire of a lost America.
Songs From a White Heart is a journey grounded in intensely personal revelations that inspired Jack's poetry, short stories, and novels such as
Bad Medicine, which
Locus Magazine described as showing us "that true magics, supernatural moments of both grief and joy, can be found in life itself. You just have to know where to look, and how to invoke them-and Jack Dann is an expert at such things."
About the author

The Man Who Melted. His work has been compared to Jorge Luis Borges, Roald Dahl, Lewis Carroll, Ray Bradbury, J. G. Ballard, Mark Twain, and Philip K. Dick.
Library Journal called Dann "...a true poet who can create pictures with a few perfect words," and Best Sellers said that "Jack Dann is a mind-warlock whose magicks will confound, disorient, shock, and delight."
