Reviews

Cary Kamarat writes about a world where the busy thumbs of tweeters have replaced the caresses of lovers and the Barcelona beat fills that Dragon’s Cave in the land of the Catalans. Traveling with this author’s observant poems and images is always a pleasure.

Kamarat’s words and images journey to every continent, including the least known, the Self.

In Travelwalk, Cary Kamarat gives the reader a glimpse of the places he’s lived and known and contemplated. In thoughtful style, his flowing passages paint a picture of the poet’s mind regarding many facets of life in the places that could very well be any place, and open the mind to wondering and longing to learn and experience more of what life has to offer. A poet who can do this had indeed done his job.

American Legends is a stunning and haunting collection of poetry by Cary Kamarat. The depth of Kamarat's imagery and the richness of his language are the hallmarks of a poet who understands his craft and who, with great care and consideration, presents every line and stanza like a gift or a sacred prayer for his readers. This work has been carved, weaved, hand grown, nutured, and tended to in a way that pays the highest homage to these Native American legends.
