REVIEW

“Old Home mingles wry humor, dark wit, and deep sorrow in almost equal measures to produce a poetry that is strong and taut as a bowstring drawn to the archer's ear. Its formal qualities are excellent; rhyme, meter, and figurative language placed just so, with no hint of pedantry or exhibitionism....Spare but shining: This is good stuff!”
