Facing Home and Beyond

"Facing Home and beyond" bursts with life and teems with vibrant portraits of grandparent, mother, father, sister, husband, red-clad women, and more. Poems skillfully focus on birth, sex, marriage, aging, dreams, death, while others -- often done with rich humor, reference food and animals (including parrot and porcupine) , also poets: Whitman, Yeats, and more. Here is poetry that throbs with vividly presented human experience. The book consists of 106 pages of poems, 12 black and white drawings, and misc. pages, such as acknowledgments, table of contents, poet's notes, index, the author's bio, and the artist's bio; laminated full-color back and front covers. "6x9" paperback / 150 pages / $16.00 retail.
