We Were Like Everyone Else, Paperback/Ken Victor

Descriere

Description We Were Like Everyone Else explores the daily humanity of family, the folly of our politics, and a natural world that seems to offer the promise of consolation but never quite does. Always the question of whether we can survive our own missteps lingers in the background of our 21st century lives as we go about raising our children, dining in a restaurant, strolling in the park. In poems both lyrical and narrative, the possibility of violence is never far off, but the same can be said of love, our capacity to endure, our hunger for healing and redemption.
