Description
These are forceful poems of grace, grit, and determination, poems of the city, poems of the countryside. They not only have their own Kelly music, but that rarest of qualities – a music between the lines.Kelly’s prose memoir and his short story not only have the authentic feel for childhood and all its arbitrary shaping family forces, but a true feeling for the neighbourhoods in which he was born and raised.
