Winner of Prize Americana, Donna J. Gelagotis Lee’s second award-winning book of poetry, Intersection on Neptune, moves outward from the immigrant experience through first and second generations to unravel a history of American life in New York and New Jersey beginning in the early to mid-1900s. In a sweep of suburban, city, and rural life, this intersection of lives spins off separate journeys to what will become twentieth-century American experiences reaching to the present. Author Donna J. Gelagotis Lee earned a B.A., cum laude, in English and creative writing from Sweet Briar College, where she was a Davison-Foreman scholar. She is the author of On the Altar of Greece (Gival Press, 2006), winner of the Gival Press Poetry Award and recipient of a 2007 Eric Hoffer Book Award: Notable for Art Category. Her poetry has appeared internationally in literary and scholarly journals, including The Bitter Oleander, The Cortland Review, Feminist Studies, Journal of New Jersey Poets, The Massachusetts Review, Review Americana, and Women’s Studies Quarterly. Reviewer Charles H. Johnson, Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation Poet, poetry teacher and reviewer states, “The poems in Donna J. Gelagotis Lee’s two-section collection Intersection on Neptune transport the reader from New York City to New Jersey. Along the way is a cultural swirl of Yom Kippur, Coney Island, and Cape Cod dwellings in the Jersey suburbs. Ms. Lee’s artistry, however, exposes truths on every page. These poems warm us through our shared recognition, appreciation, and sensation of just being alive.”
