"Cassells is a passionate poet whose poems touch the core of human connection through which can flow union with the infinite. Highly recommended."âLibrary Journal
Cyrus Cassells' fifth book commemorates the blazing integrity of young people caught in the vise of World War II. In its journey through the "anti-miracle" of Europe's embattled past, The Crossed-Out Swastika follows the lives of historical and semi-fictional characters to unearth and amplify moments of almost impossible music, bravery, beauty, and redemption, illuminating the human spirit against unspeakable tyranny.
Poet, from cellar to cellar, I remember
I held onto, of all things,
a picture book about a magical goat,
inscribed by my witty father:
This storybook belongs
to Mademoiselle Sabine
the way Paris once belonged
to Marie Antoinetteâ
Somehow having that book
helped me to endure . . .
