Description

Amid the tensions of family and community and the struggles with desire and disappointment out of which art is made, there is all this profusion: an unstoppable spring, the orange flash of a fox, figs and honey in a Greek harbor town, and a pianist conjuring lost love in his figured solosour ravenous lives teetering on the edge of todays sadness. In his ninth poetry collection, The Book of Failures, NeilShepard wanders urban and rural landscapes, from American coastlines to foreign shores, the sudden signposts deciphering whats won, whats lost. Though the tone is often elegiac in this prismatic book of human strivings, it is woven with wit and wisdom enough to illuminate the night sky and bring unexpected levity to his many discoveries.
