Sets In The West is Ryan Fredric Steinbeck's eighth collection of poems. Written in just over the span of six months, the characters in this book take a journey through mourning as they deal with loss of family members and loss of identity in the process. Other faults are exposed as they look for meaning. Carefully crafted, the book meticulously builds upon each story on it's way to the ending, where acceptance and resolve begin to emerge. The standout has to be "Conversation With A Ghost in a Bar" as the character here speaks to an empty chair while amusing the bartender. Highlights also consist of the title poem, along with "Healing Light", "The Walk Alone", "These Hands", "Conversation With A Ghost in a Bar", "Trespass", "These Wings", and "Where I End".
