Moorings

Tight, lyrical pieces and compelling narrative sequences combine in this excellent debut collection that convinces with precise language and acute observation. Charting a narrative arc from a childhood in Maine, the sense of journeying is never far beneath the surface as the poet s persona forges new identities. From the meaning of home to the sense of spiritual quest that moves beyond inherited faith, these are poems that are authentic and honest, firmly rooted in the natural world seen through the eyes of a keen intelligence.
