The Silent Art

Winner of the Gival Press Poetry Award
Nomination: 2011 Pushcart Prize for Poetry

“Clifford Bernier’s The Silent Art is a beautiful jazz symphony sweetened with the zen of everydayness and a ‘double bass blues for Trane’ … This cat has great chops in the poetry and jazz of life.” – M.L. Lieber.

“Clifford Bernier’s The Silent Art takes us on a journey through countries, landscapes, musical forms and states of mind. Rivers flow through these places to the beat of conga drums, the wail of an alto sax and the voice of a woman singing scat. To read these poems is to enter a work of expressionist art….”
—Judith Valente, correspondent, PBS-TV; co-editor, Twenty Poems to Nourish Your Soul; author of Discovering Moons
