From Field to Thicket

From Field to Thicket won the 2006 Mary Belle Campbell Poetry Book Award of the North Carolina Writers' Network. Jim Clark, Professor/Writer-in-Residence in the English Department at Barton College in Wilson, NC, says, ""Mortality haunts these poems of love, family, friendship, and betrayal. Well-crafted but with a casual but elegant formality, they set the scalpel to our conflicted humanity, asking the big questions that don't always have comforting answers."
