The Story of the Milkman and Other PoemsPaperback, 27 February 2019

"Alan Walowitz's poetry can provoke out-loud laughter and pensive melancholy; better still, he can even do both in the same poem. He has a particular talent for reconstructing recollections, quietly showing us what is moving about them and why, as in this volume's splendid title poem." Robert Wexelblatt, author of 'The Posthumous Papers of Sidney Fein' "What I love about Alan Walowitz's poems, is the very relatable way in which he captures so many of life's important moments with astute observation, wry humor, and empathy. He has a distinctive voice which infiltrates my synapses and resonates with my heart." Betsy Mars, author of 'Alinea' "Alan Walowitz is neither withholding nor unnecessarily oblique. And then there's the welcome wit, as he juggles the sometimes Jewish-blues in deft narratives that never cease to surprise. In his refusal to claim wisdom, he is wise. And oh, so rare to turn a breath into a gasp." Estha Weiner, author of 'at the last minute'
