Private Worlds: A Revised Atlas - Paperback

by Scott E. Green (Author)

This is an expanded edition on the original collection PRIVATE WORLDS. Private Worlds includes original poems plus additional pieces. For those unfamiliar with this book, it is a collection of poems; it's a collection of very short poems, usually haikus, the commentaries on the body of work of various Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror writers. This expanded edition includes actors, filmmakers, artists, and other professionals who have worked singularly or collectively in the Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror and related genres. Also most of these new poems are still going to be very short but not necessarily haikus.
