Even if you don't enjoy reading poetry, you'll love this book. It's a delightful scrutiny of a man's youthful years that will touch your heart, stir your soul and give you food for thought.This collection of poems covers a wide range of subjects from youth, friendship, romance, the people that shape your life, to the beauty of nature, its mystery and sometimes when it is "red in tooth and claw".One of the most powerful poems deals with the poet's adolescent encounter with the Holocaust and its hellish images that stains his being deeply and sets him off into an obsessive cosmological quest for meaning and illumination, and he finally finds redemptive grace.So the poems are sometimes autobiographical and at times, philosophical, but always lyrical, always profound but always accessible.

About the Author

Ted Kotcheff has directed a variety of iconic films that encompass numerous genres. Ranging from his early film, THE APPRENTICESHIP OF DUDDY KRAVITZ, starring Richard Dreyfus, to his Australian film, WAKE IN FRIGHT, now a Cannes classic, Ted's works are both highly entertaining and critically acclaimed. His picture UNCOMMON VALOR, with Gene Hackman, was ranked among the finest film statements on the Vietnam War. Kotcheff's comedies span from FUN WITH DICK AND JANE, starring Jane Fonda and George Segal, to WHO'S KILLING THE GREAT CHEFS OF EUROPE, with Jacqueline Bisset and George Segal, and finally to the incredibly popular WEEKEND AT BERNIE'S. One of his most successful endeavors, FIRST BLOOD, initiated and defined the RAMBO series. NORTH DALLAS FORTY, which Ted both wrote and directed, is considered to be one of the great sports films of all time. For the past 12 seasons, Ted has been Executive Producer on the top-rated series, LAW & ORDER: SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT. He presently resides in Los Angeles with his wife, Laifun, and their two children, Alexandra and Thomas.
