A Soul Inside Each Stone

Poetry. "Of the many good things I could say about these beautiful poems, the one I want to sing the loudest is that each presents a secret of some kind: the surprising cargo on a ship in the harbor, the ancient ruins under a modern village, the sailors in a herd of swine. This is what true poets do; they show you the world inside the world. The hero who hides a Jew from the Nazis, the face of old Agamemnon on the surface of the moon: reader, these and other treasures await you."—David Kirby
