1 MORITZ, A.F. Conflicting Desire.
Ekstasis Editions, Victoria, B.C., 2000, ISBN:1896860850 
MORITZ, A.F. Conflicting Desire. (Victoria, B.C.) : Ekstasis Editions, (2000). First Edition. Pp [1]-75,(1). 8vo, illustrated card covers. Albert Frank Moritz (born 1947) is a poet, teacher, and scholar, born in Niles, Ohio. Since 1975, he has made his home in Toronto, Ontario. "What should be wished for? Are we now freer or more regimented than ever before? What lies ahead, apotheosis or armageddon? In sharply-etched poems that blend realism andsurrealism, A.F. Moritz’ Conflicting Desire traces a visionary tour throug h the major sites of human fear and aspiration, hope and suspicion. At the same time, the poems return to the things of the earth and the basic richness of living as a constantly available source of pleasure and renewal. Conflicted desire becomes, in this poetic alchemy, a source of freedom as well as dread." - from the back cover. Very good. 15.00

2 MORITZ, A.F. Mahoning.
Brick Books, London, Ontario, 1994, ISBN:0919626734 
MORITZ, A.F. Mahoning. (London, Ontario) : Brick Books, (1994). First Edition. Pp [1]-110,(2). 8vo, illustrated red card covers. “Few artists (one thinks of Rilke and Hopkins) have presumed to evoke the spirit of embodied Nature. A. F. Moritz not only succeeds in thus animating a living world, but he deals with our human presence and assault on it with sympathy and a larger vision than the misanthropy such injuries easily summon. This is nature poetry with a difference: through Moritz's landscapes, from the abandoned industries of the Rust Belt to the decaying monuments of vanished civilization, move the vivid and engaging characters we have come to expect from this clear-eyed and open-hearted poet.” - from the back cover. Albert Frank Moritz (born 1947) is a poet, teacher, and scholar, born in Niles, Ohio. Since 1975, he has made his home in Toronto, Ontario. Very good. 15.00
