In language evocative and rich in imagery, detail, and reflection, the poet of TIDELINES observes, explores, and praises the particulars in, and even the linkages among, the florescent, avian, marine, and human domains.  To a large extent, TIDELINES is essentially a meditative ode to the American Coastline and to the mystical lure of the sea, and the book is also attentive to the drolleries of the American Scene.

The poet of TIDELINES, Russell Steinke, has published poems in THE CHARITON REVIEW, THE COMSTOCK REVIEW, CONFRONTATION, DESCANT, EPOCH, KANSAS QUARTERLY,  NANTUCKET REVIEW,  PEMBROKE MAGAZINE,  SOUTHERN POETRY REVIEW, THREE RIVERS POETRY JOURNAL,  and elsewhere.  He has presented poetry readings at a NEMLA Conference (Hartford, CT),   NYCEA Conference (Rochester, NY),   Walt Whitman House (Huntington, NY), Westhampton, NY Writers Group, and elsewhere. He earned a Ph.D. in English at SUNY— Stony Brook, and he is also a recipient of a SUNY Creative Writing Fellowship and a Mellon Foundation Fellowship.
