The Omnipotent Sorcerer by Roger Aplon is a poetry collection to be reckoned with — touching on themes such as relationships, grief, politics, and other provoking topics.

Roger Aplon was a founder and managing editor of Chicago's CHOICE Magazine with John Logan and Aaron Siskind. He has thirteen books published, twelve of which are poetry (most recently Mustering What's Left Selected and New Poems 1976-2017). Intimacies (2006) is a book of prose. Aplon has received many awards and fellowships including an arts fellowship from the Helen Wurlitzer Foundation in Taos, New Mexico.
