- Summary
- "Larry Smith takes a hard-eyed look at the suffering and joy human beings cause one another and the inequalities of the world we live in. And yet these poems take the full measure of human life, finding the peace and humor that reside in family, in love, and in those smallest, ordinary moments of each lived day and the way their casual, unforced grace help us to live our lives"--Provided by publisher.
