<Title>Dr. Robert Deluty Publishes his 62nd Book</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><span><p>Dr.
     Robert Deluty, associate dean emeritus of the Graduate School, has 
    published a new book, "Paying Heed." In his review, Dr. Ronald Pies 
    writes, “In his latest sparkling collection of short poems, Robert 
    Deluty heeds all his senses, especially his sense of humor. His 
    trademark love of wordplay and irony are everywhere to be found, but the
     reader also finds many poems capturing what writer Diane Ackerman calls
     ‘complexly appealing moments.’ Thus, we find ‘counting the times/ the 
    young prof responds in class/ <em>Great question!</em>’ and ‘counting the times/ the old prof utters in class/ <em>Where were we?</em>’
     Few poets are better than Robert Deluty at crystallizing life's complex
     mix of the comic, the tragic, and the uproarious. Reader, pay heed!”  <br></p>
    <p><br></p>
    <p>And in his appraisal of the book, Dr. George Northrup notes, <span>“</span><span>Anyone acquainted with Robert Deluty’s ongoing renovation of traditional haiku forms will welcome </span><em>Paying Heed</em><span> as
     an invitation to lively entertainment in his vast yet familiar stomping
     ground, where favorite subjects—children, college professors and 
    students, relatives, and diverse ethnic groups—display their humor as 
    they grapple with insight into life’s large and small concerns. From one
     smile to the next, the reader has opportunities on every page to be 
    grateful that Deluty’s creative sparks are still flying—wryly 
    illuminating love, atonement, psychotherapy, sports, and those aching 
    questions about whether cats feel guilty, doctors have a profession in 
    heaven, and the true cause of Socrates’ death.  Here and there a rare 
    appearance of life in its tragic form startles our awareness, all the 
    more compelling for being embedded in an expectation of joviality and 
    driving home the wise epigraph by Michael Scott wistfully reminding us 
    to heed our senses.  If you are not familiar with his work, you have 
    much delightful catching up to do.”</span></p></span></div>
