Summary
In Rob Carney’ s eighth collection, the titles call out in one voice and the poems respond in another, sometimes directly, sometimes diagonally, but always memorably. The book begins with a current event that sparks a time-travel quest for justice, then it keeps on journeying: from Utah to the ocean; from humor to elegy; from lessons learned at Sea School to a literary church and final congregational Amen. Among the poems here is one titled “ I’ ve Still Got My Passport.” Think of this book as a passport too; it’ s a trip.
