No Customer Reviews

In Father, Doctor and the Great City, Schneiderman is influenced by the Ancient Greek lyricists and other poets, from 16th Century British to contemporary anthologies of poems about dogs and baseball to Billy Collins. He follows his son's growth to manhood with love and humor, laments lost friends, and celebrates the African, Jewish-Polish, Italian (Calabrese and Napolitan) and Irish individuals of his family. He ranges from Elizabeth, NJ, to the South Bronx, to a bird refuge in Oregon, to a Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix. These poems celebrate birds, the good fight against cancer, architecture, dogs, people, art, and, everywhere, his wife.
