Tanning on Dangerous Beaches

In what will be his final book of poetry, renowned psychologist and poet Jack Apsche writes, "Cancer has changed me." In this remarkable collection, we experience the many ways that incurable cancer has, indeed, changed this gifted poet—even changing the deep scars of survival in Vietnam. Facing the end of life, Jack's poems shout out with urgency and pure honesty, yielding a bouquet of clarity, wisdom and humor that both touches and enlightens. If truth uttered before its time is dangerous, Tanning on Dangerous Beaches is downright treacherous, and quite simply, beautiful.
