Lost & Found

By David Lanier

The eighteen poems in this collection recall a boy's childhood and coming-of-age in a small town in the rural Southeast of the 1960s. Much of the physical evidence of the world in which the boy lived has disappeared over the intervening years as a result of the death of parents and friends as well as profound changes in the natural and social environment of the region. These poems attempt not only to revisit what has been "lost," but to "find" anew the emotional meaning and significance of the people, objects and things of nature that populated the world being remembered.

"The seemingly simple and direct diction of these exquisitely crafted poems belies the wisdom, insight, and epiphanies looming beneath their crystalline surfaces."
