"Reading S. R. Lavin's poetry is to allow for a personal transformation to occur within one's own soul."
~ William Berger
S. R. Lavin offers his collected poems, 1978-2007, VOICE IN THE WHIRLWIND to the international audience and readership he has reached for more than forty years. Contained within this one volume are as yet unpublished poems as well as poems previously published in quarterlies, magazines, and anthologies in England, The Netherlands, Poland, The United States and, most notably, China. Lavin's writings span three decades of a maturing visionary seeking peace and beauty while confronting injustice and social evils, and never failing to ponder those mysteries beyond our finite understandings.

Lavin has forged his own destiny and identity in his writing, but at the same time, these poems are a compelling human odyssey, and Lavin's readers can make the journey with him into the intimate realm of self and discovery, through the primal mysteries while embracing the hopes that are in common to all of humanity. Through suffering and the courage to endure, Lavin offers a reassuring voice and an affirmation of a life that has been lived fully in touch with what is worth struggling to attain, and, without apology, to stand resolutely against injustice.
Taken as a body of work, these poems offer a complete and expansive vision of the human capacity to see and comprehend how the forces of Nature are woven in concert with his existential narrative. The poems convey what it means to be vulnerable and connected to our deep human needs.
From THE RUSTED ARM OF GOD: "Eternity surrounds us--a glimpse of sparkle/in the crystallized dew-drops/of the waking world. Beyond understanding--the immortal song of a grasshopper/on a warm summer day."
