"In The Night of the Lunar Eclipse, her second collection, Szumowski explores the roots of our culture while remaining true to her own. Time collapses in this collection, melding the images of our past: arch angels and ancient Rome with a saloon somewhere in east-nowhere Frackville, creating a unique texture to her work that is light, loving, and just this side of ecstatic. Szumowski's work unravels the tenderness from each subject with gentle and eager wordplay that scintillates the heart as it pierces with sublime purity. In her poems, the sensitive, aching of the human heart reminds us that the real world is still in motion -- its inhabitants clinging to something beautiful -- even after we have reached the final page."--Publisher's website.
