About the Book
Fragments is a diverse collection of modern, postmodern and lyric poetry. The poet deftly and imaginatively collects bits and pieces and shards and remains of the experiential world that surrounds us and creates a mysterious and luminous whole. The poems are localized in the American Southwest and West and yet simultaneously evoke a broader universal landscape. A terrain that is both physical and psychological.
