This Ae Nighte, Every Nighte and Alle

A collection of 33 poems in the genre of the weird, horrific, and supernatural. A retired professor of college English, creative writing, and journalism; he has published poetry and fiction across speculative genres in magazines, anthologies, and online. "Poetry scholar Frank Coffman creates a relentless and obsessive poetic journey into the dark night of the soul. Poet Coffman utilizes classic poetic forms such as the sonnet and villanelle in a postmodern, so-old-it-is-new way to unleash a speculative world of supernatural terror. These poems are just the thing to read aloud on Halloween, or if you want to make every day Halloween. He brings a lifetime of experience with him to create a volume that is both rigorous and enchanted." —JP Bloch, author of IDENTITY THIEF and SHADOW LANGUAGE "…he’s an expert on folklore themes and an impressive master of formal verse.” —Marge Simon, from her column, BLOOD AND SPADES, in the HWA Newsletter.
