Sinopsis

'John DorseyâÇÖs book is a tribute to small town life. He carefully dissects the lives of his characters to find the crossroads where dreams were thwarted, and how the survivors of these lost dreams manage to carry on anyway, sometimes as though they donâÇÖt even know how close they came to escaping the bear trap of smoky bars and bar fights and the endless cycle of pregnancy and childrearing.áEach inhabitant of these poems is treated with delicate dignity, leaving you with the feeling that youâÇÖve met each and every one of these characters at some point in your own life, or may have even been in one of two of these poems yourself.'-Holly Day, author of Into theáCracks'John Dorsey is one of my favorite living poets - clear minute particulars and broken-hearted honesty. Generous empathetic outlook for our hardened times.'-Marc Olmsted, author of DonâÇÖtáHesitate: Knowing Allen Ginsbergáá
