Opening To You: Zen-Inspired Translations of the Psalms
"Fischer's aim was to translate the Psalms in a way that would convey their beauty and power in accessible English for readers of every spiritual path or religious background. In ninety-three poems of praise, celebration, suffering, and lamentation, he brings the Psalms alive for today's readers, revealing an interfaith aspect to these sacred songs that is completely contemporary."

Questions/Places/Voices/Seasons
Questions/Places/Voices/Seasons continues and expands the innovative meditational poetry Norman Fischer has explored in earlier books, such as Slowly But Dearly, Success, and I Was Blown Back. The two long serial poems that anchor Questions/Places/Voices/Seasons, “Charlotte’s Way” and “Seasons,” will feel quite familiar to Fischer’s many readers. But he also inaugurates a new form of writing in this new book in which he inhabits the voices of others, such as Alberto Caeiro, Reb Yosl of Kemenetz, Elena Rivera, and Saigyo Hoshi. The combination of these distinct forms of writing creates a compelling new addition to Fischer’s already impressive body of work.
