Synopsis

Russ Rankin's volume of poetry, Pure Few Hearts, slices into the fabric of emotion and psyche. Poem by poem, Rankin's reflections, confessions, and admissions propel the reader through forms of consciousness oscillating between vulnerability and resilience, sensitivity and intensity, introspection and spontaneity, and gathering energy as they navigate landscapes both external and internal. 

-Theodore Shank, author of Follow the Flickering Down
