- Summary:
- Headstone is Mark Elber's debut poetry collection examining his personal history as well as his Jewish inheritance. The book won the 2022 Henry Morgenthau Poetry Prize for a poet 70 or older. Judge David Keplinger notes that it is a "Dantean journey ... and perhaps it is this compulsion to look back, to gather up the artifacts of the past, stories and voices in memoriam, that charges the electrifying language of this poetry, so full of emergency and details that spur more details.--Publisher.
