The scent of the full moon

About the Book

Powerfully phrased, elegantly structured and uniquely presented. This book constitutes a new era in the evolution of poetry. It is a great contribution to the global recognition of Canadian literature. A reference against which poetry will be measured.

- K. Cohien, Editor

The depth of the exceptionally rich imagery in this book, and the stunning use of the language promise a very successful and enjoyable book. Though no great poet in history was fully and truly appreciated in his days, if not sooner - it may only take the next generation’s library to crown the author the unsurpassed poet of all times. It is an honor to introduce this book.

- W. S. Martin, M.A. Author.

Having dazzled the imagination of poetry with his previous book “Intoxicated Emotions” – Paul Gouda – in “The scent of the full moon” has written his name in history with the very few elite giants of recorded literature. Having taught advanced literature at graduate level for 18 years, I believe I am qualified to make this very bold statement: “This book has confidently earned its place within the unique category of the greatest literature ever written..” This is not a statement anyone would make lightly. I am confident that history will prove this testimonial to be true. Brilliant material.
