Book Launch for Harris Gardner's "No Time for Death"
Saturday February 24, 2024 7:00pm - 8:00pm EST
Welcome to a world where there is no time for death. It is a place and a state of mind, both for the temporal
and the spiritual with space for the mundane and the extraordinary. “No Time for Death” is Harris Gardner’s
fourth published collection; it is his first in fifteen years. This poetry collection is divided into three sections:
An Argument with Time; Contemplating Mortality Instead of My Navel; and Negotiating for An Afterlife. These are serious poems with an undercurrent of humor pervading many of them. The subject matter spans the spectrum of the human condition imbued with faith, hope, and the occasional flicker of regret. It is engaged with the busy-ness of living. “No Time for Death” offers an overarching theme: Take a breath, a revitalizing pause; as for Mortality, slow down; enjoy the most of each day-to-day. What’s the rush? Death can wait, can’t it?
