Marc J. Straus - poet,
oncologist and art
patron - has published voluminously
in many fields and is the recipient of awards as
a clinician, humanist, poet and scientist.
A
distinguished oncologist whose literary work has
been performed in venues across the country, Marc's
latest work, NOT GOD (released in April 2006),
is a searing literary and stage work that dramatizes
a patient's journey through illness. In these eloquent
poems (monologues) of the patient and her physician,
the language of the hospital is revealed...the shuffle
of nurses, beeps of machines, counting of pills
and measuring of words.

"NOT
GOD is that rarest of combinations: graceful
construction and unflinching honesty." - Prairie Schooner
