 Meeting Dad
Brian Russell
"Meeting Dad is a suspense story that every father and son should read together. Brian Russell shows how a boy, abandoned by his father, can gradually work his way through longing and regret to understanding and forgiveness." - Neil Chethik, Author of FatherLoss: How Sons Deal With the Deaths of Their Dads
"...With flash, sass, poignancy and the incomprehension that those who are abandoned always retain, Brian Russell tells this story. It is a moving tale, a wicked saga in all ways, since it forces the boys [Brian and his brother] to glimpse what could have been, but was withheld. Meeting Dad recreates a shining hour, a tarnished hour." - Molly Peacock, Author of Paradise, Piece by Piece

 Wrecking Ball and Other Urban Haiku
Barry George
The haiku in this book blend a distinctly urban content with the nature-oriented perspective of traditional haiku. "What I admire about Barry George's poetry is the possibility for human utterance within a contemporary scene - not unlike the lyric poem in modern English - explored in Japanese short forms. In three lines he paints a scene as contemporary as Edward Hopper, strikes notes as American as Aaron Copland. George focuses our attention visually and aurally, and thus each haiku is a cinematic moment casting an afterimage long after the poem closes. Even those who are not familiar with the ever-evolving Japanese short form will find Wrecking Ball and Other Urban Haiku universal in compression and resonance." - Jeanie Thompson, author of The Seasons Bear Us and Executive Director, The Alabama Writers' Forum

 Stick Tight Man
Jim Lally
This is Jim Lally's first poetry collection.
"Like the man covered with stick-tights that cling after a walk in a summer field, these reports from Jim Lally's world -- about falling barns, clothes-lines, spring peepers, ghost trees, poke berries, Quaker meetings, and Daniel Boone (even an homage to the letter W) -- stick with the reader long after the journey. What holds them to us is a discerning eye, an ear for language and for nature in its hummings, a readiness to explore the small ground which opens to the resonating world around us." - Richard Taylor,
