The Crescent, the Sea, & the Long Sand: Poems and Stories David K. Lemons

The Crescent, the Sea, and the Long Sand by David K. Lemons is a collection of poetry and stories drawn from the author's having lived in the Middle East, Africa, Europe, Mexico and the United States. The poems deal with friendship, love, politics, philosophy, religion, remorse, death, and rebirth among many other themes. The stories explore facets of the individual on a quest: as a stranger in a strange land, having love snatched away, feeling disoriented by treachery, or purifying oneself through the inwardness of excellence. Some of Mr. Lemons' poems and stories in this collection have been previously published in literary magazines.
