For Shakespeare’s Duke Orsino: Music, Food, Love, poetry by Lynn Veach Sadler

June 18, 2012 - PRLog -- ... I never asked. Neither do I think she is a chef, though I am certain she can prepare a perfectly boiled egg. As for love matters, that’s easy, if I quote her as being neither a “gusher” nor a “sentimentalist”. So what is there with Dr. Lynn Veach Sadler and a poetry book called “Music, Food, Poetry”? Well, in one word - everything. In one other word, making it a total of two - perfection. In one other word... ok, got the idea? Lynn can take any subject and turn it into a masterpiece of allusion, illusion, collusion and above all... profusion. This is another collection we are proudly collating for the wide public, with nothing else in mind but the diffusion [sic] of incredible quality.
