Product Description
by Gary Beaumier (Author)
When we read Gary Beaumier's poems, we notice not only the rich imagery and clear narrative, but the heart and relationship in each poem. His attention to detail creates short phrases that are almost poems on their own. Beaumier speaks to a love that has both sorrow and joy, pain and tears, and invites the reader into an unexpected intimacy. - Polly Alice McCann, editor of the publication, Flying Ketchup Press The tender, alert, searching scenes Gary Beaumier puts into his second volume of poetry, Dented Brown Fedora, will make any reader pause, sink back down to ear, eye, skin, drink in every breath, blade, and branch. He holds words in his palms, strokes them. His lines are not just vividly imagined. They have an uncanny ability to become a stethoscope by which we listen in to many hearts and hear how a landscape's heart beats. - Ed Ruzicka, author of the poetry collection, Engines of Belief
