Work Description
Michael Dickman's breathtaking debut melds the mysterious with the everyday, documenting the bright desires and all-to-common sufferings of modern times: spiritual longing, the improbable expectations fathers have for their sons, drug abuse, gritty neighborhoods, and unfailingly complicated human relationships ("Ian broke his mother's nose because she burned the pancakes"). Distinctive in their direct, unflinching view, Michael Dickman's poems can proclaim, despite a catalogue of loss and disappointment:
Still
there is a lot to pray to
on earth.
