About this title

Synopsis

In his hometown of Morgantown, West Virginia, Ron Iannone is most visible for his decades of work in the theatre. In his more private times, he directs the same imagination and sensitivity that he uses in the theatre to fiction and poetry. In An Ethnic Connection and Goals Beyond, Iannone brings a 1975 volume of poetry back into print, with an additional eighty-two pieces. One recurring theme is self-discovery—finding some truth about ourselves and moving on with new understanding. Another is the wonder of mundane life, when just for a moment the veil is lifted, and we get a tantalizing glimpse of a deeper reality. These poems are our own feelings, our own experiences, stripped to the bone for us to see with new vision.
