Description

Witty, wordy, descriptive, sometimes lyrical (nature) but mostly edgy (about the people) – “ her voice like barbwire set to music “ or in Historical research and lived experience combine in story-telling that both informs and reels the reader in. A maverick, autobiographical (story) in “ Owls “-“ the gift of being alone, of time to write. Bullshit- he’s just lousy with women Honest work. —SC – WRITER/ CRITIC, LIVERPOOL, UK

 

There is something primordial in these stories, an innocence and a describing of some-thing that can never come again. In the grit and rawness of the days of a boy who sees, enters in, but is somehow unscarred, there is beauty, but it is too private almost to men-tion. The humor is sharp, subtle and wry. There’s a trueness, an admission of how exactly it was per each situation in each story.  —M F Shakopee Minnesota
