The Midnight Whimsical is now available! Please read the incredible poet laureate Jack Ridl’s blurb below:

“If you should find yourself wandering in the heart, mind, imagination, and soul of Edgar Ellis Wolf, you may at first want to search for the fastest way out. But then you hear a flower or bug, a tree or pond talking, even you talking to yourself, and you’ll want to stay—likely forever. Wolf creates no world we’re accustomed to, one created by all that’s real, with one indelible difference: magic is as real as your left thumb. In an age when cutting edge science is revealing means of communication between everything on this planet, we are heartrendingly left out. We know it’s happening, but we simply don’t understand a “word.” However, Wolf’s imagination, in his compelling collection The Midnight Whimsical, somehow connects to the language of everything. Wolf is our magician of translation. Blend the works of Edward Lear, Richard Powers, Margaret Wise Brown, and J.R.R. Tolkien, then toss in an off rhythm or two from Dr. Seuss and you may come close to the creations of Edgar Ellis Wolf. Wolf is a welcomer, and he hopes you’ll enjoy your stay.”
