The Houdini Chronicles

Houdini certainly seems to be popular with poets these days. Last year we got two Houdini inspired books of poetry (Sleeping With Houdini and The Anatomy of Keys). Now only a few weeks into 2008 we get another.

According to the description on Amazon.com, The Houdini Chronicles by Hope Maxwell-Snyder is a volume of poetry written in three voices and “depicts a love affair between Harry Houdini and his muse, who falls in love with him after seeing his picture on the Internet. Their relationship questions traditional roles and explores boundaries with humor and melancholy.”

The Houdini Chronicles is published by Somondoco Press and can be purchased on Amazon.
