Book Release Posthumously Honors the Legacy of Los Altos Poet and Philanthropist Irene Adler
SAN MATEO, Calif. - s4story -- In a tribute to the enduring power of poetry, Paloma Press is pleased to announce the posthumous release of Bone Flute: A Woman Speaks, a collection of lyrical poems by Irene Adler. Edited by award-winning poet Angela Narciso Torres, Bone Flute provides a longitudinal poetic record of American life and womanhood echoing Linda Pastan, Mona Van Duyn, and Grace Paley.
"After a career of teaching English for about 15 years, Irene began writing every day. I loved it and was her devoted cheerleader. She often wrote about something she encountered in her life," recalls Alan Adler, Irene's husband of 61 years and inventor of the Aerobie flying ring and the Aeropress coffee maker. Irene was also a philanthropist and contributed substantial funds to support cancer research at Stanford University. After Irene passed away in October 2023, Alan endowed a chair at Stanford Medicine in her name. In addition to making a difference in the lives of countless cancer patients, Irene left behind over 2,000 unpublished poems written over 25 years. "Now that we have Bone Flute," Alan continues, "I'm eager to expose the world to Irene's wonderful poetry. Royalties will go to the Cancer Research at Stanford University as Irene wished. I intend to do all that can be done to share this book with the world."

Many hands helped bring Bone Flute to life. Angela Narciso Torres, Irene's friend of more than 20 years, formed an editorial committee made up of fellow poets Gail Goepfert, Naoko Fujimoto, and Timothy Torres. The book features a Foreword by Nan Cohen, and advance words by Sally Ashton, Robin Ekiss, Peter Kline, and Cintia Santana, all of whom knew Irene. The family and friends of Irene Adler, in association with Paloma Press, are organizing a reading in May to celebrate the book's release. Bone Flute: A Woman Speaks is available April 29, 2025 through leading online retailers and booksellers.
