These poems don't close the door behind you in terms of faith, rather they open that door widely. Brown is a poet who truly confronts the ordinary and examines experience with a surgeon's knife, cutting away the dross until we arrive at the bones of the extraordinary. He seems intent on following William Carlos Williams dictum: "No ideas but the thing itself."
Herbert Woodward Martin, Poet-in-Residence at the University of Dayton and author of The Log of the Vigilante

. . . a refreshing and candid look at the emotions and pitfalls of our current society. These works are carefully crafted, as not to overuse a word, a phrase, or a piece of punctuation. The book represents an artist who is at the height of his craft, allowing each poem to express his deepest thoughts and passions.
Thomas J. Doan, poetry editor of Paradigm
