Pieces Of Heart: Poems 2014

By Larry Goodell

Pieces of Heart, poems by Larry Goodell from 2014, is the third of three books released by Beatlick Press in the Fall of 2015. Broken Garden & The Unsaid Sings was the first, followed by Digital Remains. Pieces of Heart also follows the poet's notebooks and includes many drawings. Drawings are integral to the flow of the poems.

Bob Holman: "Long before the Poetry Slam there was Goodell leading the way back to the oral roots of poetry. As Lorca says, 'Theater is poetry that rises from the book and becomes human enough to talk and shout, weep and despair.'

Gary Glazner: "The first time I saw Goodell perform at the Bisbee Poetry Festival in 1990 the connection between Lorca's concept of duende and Goodell's shouting, whispering, gourd shaking poetry was clear and inspiring."

Pieces of Heart has been popular - it's a thinner volume than some of my other books, it has one of the best satirical poems I've ever written, "Friends" about, of course, Facebook, and the cover is a drawing my son did. I love it. Larry Goodell
