Voice Will Run

Drawing on the author's own experience of family life, religious faith, and his years at work, these poems, meditations, and short stories form a personal reflection. The pieces range across free verse, sonnets, and works built on set rhyme schemes, with prose passages mixed in.

The collection holds a wide range of images and ideas, and readers may find something new each time they return to it. It stands as a account of American life and labor, meant to be kept on a shelf for slow, considered reading.
