Jules Jacob's Books
May.03.2013
Jacob's poetry collection, The Glass Sponge, traces family moments in "Dream House" through the "…lazy moonlight" as the sound barrier is broken, warning us, Ozzy and Harriet have stepped out. A tenderness emerges through the fear and angst of family abuse with a compassionate eye and an intimate understanding of the toll abusers demand.
—Diane Smith, Founder and Editor of the...
In this strong and vulnerable collection of poetry, the poet spins out a thoughtful imagery of innocence and culpability, for (and of) "the users and the abused". Jules Jacob inhabits a dichotomous world, and with delicate magnetism, draws us into it, in each poem. ”
—The Glass Sponge Endorsement— Dr. Harrison Solow, Pushcart Prize winning writer, author and university professor
