Sean Karns will break your heart. The narrator of this collection makes starkly vivid the hardscrabble background of his life: an unhappy mother who works at the slaughterhouse, a father whose farm fails, a boy who loves both but plays the piano to escape. A group of poems referencing the likes of Walker Evans and James Agee enlarges the context considerably. There is a doomed affair, a brilliant dream sequence about the father, and a field of cornstalks.flutter ing] their death rattle. Deeply sad, profoundly moving, and seductively musical, these poems are a testament to survival and art. - KELY CHERY, author of The Life and Death of Poetry: Poems
CLAIRE COOK wrote her first novel in her minivan at 45. At 50, she walked the red carpet at the Hollywood premiere of the adaptation of her second novel, Must Love Dogs, starring Diane Lane and John Cusack. If you have a buried dream, take it from Claire, it is NEVER too late! Claire has reinvented herself once again by turning Must Love Dogs into a series, as well as writing her first nonfiction book, Never Too Late: Your Roadmap to Reinvention (without getting lost along the way), in which she shares everything she's learned on her own journey that might help you in yours. She has also become a fun, inspiring reinvention speaker-you can invite her to speak at a conference or other event by going to http: //ClaireCook.com/speaking/. Claire was born in Virginia, and lived for many years in Scituate, Massachusetts, a beach town between Boston and Cape Cod. She and her husband have recently moved to the suburbs of Atlanta to be closer to their two adult kids, who actually want them around again! Claire loves connecting with her readers.
