Postscripts

Postscripts makes many travels, from the landscapes and cultures of foreign travels, to the long journey through grief. Thrown also into relief is home-for this poet, West Virginia, in the heart of Appalachia-and all the ways it balances the hard-hewn beauty and hardscrabble realities. Like a travel diary or a love letter home, these poems speak to place in all its incarnations: physical, artistic, spiritual, familial, and imagined.
