Description: **MAKARS' DOZENS** stands for a baker's dozen meaning sandwiched between the covers of this book you get the verses of three distinctive voices: poet Robert Peters(the best known among three), Paul Trachtenberg, and Barbara Hauk. Peters' voice represents modifying poetic language and breaking new artistic grounds by combining playful rhymes with painfully serious matter. Trachtenberg's attracts readership with quippiness jangling and contracting with all sorts of musical possibility. Hauk's poems are marked by an intense awareness of 'propriety' and all its nonsensical hypocrisy.
