Simply outstanding

Just read it. Brilliant prose and poetry, both serious and humorous, balanced between optimism and despair. I have never laughed as hard in my life as I did while reading the short story "Sinner" by David Kowalczyk. The poems and stories are all gems in their own ways. You do not have to be Catholic to find this book of value. Only human.
