You lie awake, needlessly fingering this patchwork guilt. Remorse, a code you live by; distress calls for someone to blame. —from “Threads” Following the deaths of her Mennonite grandparents, Angeline Schellenberg began exploring their influence on her life. Her elegiac love letter to them articulates her grief against the backdrop of their involuntary emigration. She artfully captures the immigrant identity, vital to Canadian culture, in poems that draw on events both personal and global: war and famine, dementia and cancer, hidden sacrifice and secrets. Her poems captivate with themes of ancestry, memory, resilience, and forgiveness. Fields of Light and Stone is a reflection on how family history shapes and moves us.

The Poetry of Stone Forest includes photos of the author with: Historian Maria Rotworowski, USA Poet Laureate Donald Hall, Congressman Mauricio Mulder, Mayor of Cerro de Pasco Tito Valle, and Senior Member of the Journalist College, in Huancayo, Adelmo Huamani. Dennis creates here, a collection of remarkable and timeless poetry, original in all its refreshing forces (with notes, and commentary on 'Stone Forest' high up in the Andes in Cerro de Pasco; one of the mysteries of the world and a wonder of Peru); he adds in this collection, legends, about Stone Forest: packed with photos and art work; and an introductory poem called, "The Crow", about his illness. Now he sets the poems loose on the world, to discover 'Stone Forest'. He adds two Complimentary poems (by: Juan Parra del Riego, and Apolinario Mayta Inga) translated and edited by the author. During Dr. Siluk's stay in Cerro de Pasco, Peru (highest city in the world), he received by Mayor Tito Valle, a Gold Medal as an 'Illustrious Visitor', thus, deciding to create a book similar to his previous one for the Mantaro Valley, "The Road to Unishcoto", centered on Stone Forest, after finding a haunting inspiration to do so.
