A teller and weaver of American mythologies, Melvin Sandberg presents us with images, struggles, and touches of humor that are distinctly American in their flavor, but cross-cultural in their appeal. Whether he's telling of social injustice or just spinning a yarn, you'll find his works are an easy pleasure to read.
Melvin says: "I developed a love for poetry at an early age from my father, a Hebrew teacher. While working for the Army as a civilian during the Korean War, I met and married the most beautiful woman I had ever seen, Kim Soon Jung. I fell in love with her at first sight and with every passing day loved her more, even after her death five years ago. She taught me the meaning of kindness, gentleness, sweetness, and love."
