"I thank you
for the soulful shimmering
under the surface of your canvases,
the cups of salvation,
and the bread of life.
These are my prayers for you all."
STEPHAN SILICH
ABOUT THE BOOK
Tonight Is The Longest Night of Them All is Stephan Silich's second collection of poetry in which he once again captures the ordinary and extraordinary moments of living and loving. His poems are as much stories and observations as they are lyrical interpretations of the human condition. In these pages, he stretches his muse beyond reflections on love, family, and human mortality and pays tribute to the streets of his native New York and to the artists and writers who have offered inspiration. But most of all, Silich's words offer an eternal song of longing and hope, the perfect remedy for those of us who fail and have the courage to try and try again.
Stephan Silich is an award-winning poet and storyteller. He has been writing and short stories for over twenty years. ​He is a native New Yorker and lives in Manhattan and East Hampton with his two daughters, Emma and Mia.
