"There is in this collection a real affection for the world and a wisdom in Absher's contemplation of the beings who inhabit it. His love is an examin…ed love, and so we have the pleasure of listening to his mind and to his heart. The clarity of the writing and the complexity of Absher's world-view result in a poetry of intelligence and power. I was moved by the beautiful moral tone of these poems.". 59 pages.
