from the DJ; "Through a wide variety of forms and voices. Jim Simmerman's dazzling first collection of poems explores the diverse meanings of HOME. Family history, love, art, the impact of other real and imagined lives all contribute to the poet's complex awareness of himself, his world and his work."
