Word is spreading quickly...
Wee Cowrin' Timorous Beastie is catching the eye of some highly respected poets, authors, story-tellers, art critics, reviewers.
Here's just a sample of what they're saying...
"The epic poetry of Karla Morton…the exquisite music of Howard Baer and the haunting photography of Walter Eagleton are combined into a lush, romantic experience. This is a work you will want to listen to all in one sitting. The story, the words, the music will carry you to a place that is all too rare in this world of over-analyzed and non-accessible poetry. This is magic and sensual fog and eternal yearning in the style of Shelley and Byron.”
Alan Birkelbach
2005 Texas Poet Laureate
“There are no words to describe how powerful this is! It's a veritable happening that sweeps you away and holds you in its clutches until it's finished with you, and at the end you shed some real tears….it's that powerful. What a tribute to culture and poetry worldwide.”
Gerald Hausman
Award-Winning Author and Storyteller
"Together, the music and verse are surprisingly visual. Mr. Baer has a light touch, adding just a throb of drums to suspenseful verses and dipping into murkier tone colors when the action turns dark. He uses bagpipes, strings, percussion and even accordion to shroud the story in mist, soak it with rain or let in the light."
