Synopsis
Poetry. "The voice in these poems is powerfully deep and inside, as if it's coming up from the bottom of a well. Yet it is also a recognizable voice, one we have in our own heads at certain moments. Alan May has created an echo chamber of lyric consciousness, not in service of solipsism, but for the purpose of communion. These poems disturb and sadden and charm, but above all they keep us with them. The illustrations, by Tom Wegrzynowski and May, are as otherworldly as the poems, yet the art of this moving and elegant book convinces the reader the other world is where we do our living. DEAD LETTERS is a work of great beauty and force, of intelligence and stark humility"--Maurice Manning.
