Book Description
Plain spoken narrators as diverse as the America they inhabit - a pastor's son, the lonely night nurse and fat boy - are all ill at ease. Through road kill, September 11th and death row characters address their own bitter faults with noir-like melancholy, seeking redemption and absolution. What you will find here is the grist of life - death, love, sex, departure - honed by a poet focused on the gravity, fear and humour of living.
