ReviewsExcerpts of reviews of Does She Have a Name: "Witte has done something extraordinary here. At once terrifying and heartrending, Does She Have a Name? demonstrates unflinchingly that what lies at the heart of faith is love. It is a great and important work."—Frank Wilson, Philadelphia Inquirer Read more at http://www.philly.com/philly/entertainment/literature/20140824_Three_new_books_of_poems__A_world_of_gadgets__and_something_greater.html#MJw1GDiOfmWSBiCK.99 Excerpts from reviews of Deniability: Poems: “Poetry is as ancient as language. It ranges from the simple pun to the complex metaphor. And at its best it is nothing less than music for the mind. Such is the caliber of poetry by George Witte that is now compiled into "Deniability". This is Witte's second anthology and is particularly notable for his deft skills in creating memorable verse." --Midwest Poetry Review. [6] "[Deniability] looks closely at our troubled times, as well as the troubling language and verbal abuse that surfaces in such uncertain moments: clichés and euphemisms, code words and doublespeak....With loose but careful measures and a keen regard for the exactly right word, Witte examines every opened can of worms before kicking it down the road. Smart, timely, and sane, this volume is highly recommended." --Library Journal [7] "There are times in history when it is best for a people to move on from past mistakes. There are other times, such as now, when the past cries out to be explored. For those who are searching for meaning to the last eight years, a new book by American poet, George Witte, Deniability, is the place to start." --The Environmentalist [8] Excerpts from reviews of Apparitioners: Poems [9] "His intensity of intelligence burns down scenes to their forms. . . rare and original. Read him.” --James Applewhite, 2005"A metaphysician of the suburbs, alert to the heights and depths that inhere in everyday life...lovely, auspicious debut." -- Willard Spiegelman Links to reviews
