This book contains some of the most interesting and readable poetry around today from a writer who found his voice early and developed it over 40 years until it is as clear as a precision cut diamond. Reading from beginning to end not only spans time but geographical locations as well, from from Berkeley in the 1960's to Alaska, Washington, Colorado and finally landing in California in 1998. This book not only gives insight to a life but also to what was happening in the world surrounding that life. There is no beely button gazing here, it is out there poetry.
