Shells in the Sieve

by Nathan Fryback

The Shells in the Sieve are the things of substance in our lives that we keep as we move through growth, change and renewal. Family, sense of self and a deep reverence for the great wheels of the natural world are the solid artifacts found on the shore in these poems. Voiced from the perspective of various, sometimes in animate entities, the work here seeks to express the power of place amidst constant change and the search for grace in the human endeavor.

"Nathan Fryback has crafted a collection of unbelievable beauty and loneliness in this his first collection. From things as seemingly mundane as a grocery cart to the fantastic supernatural of the moon and stars, he expertly pulls you in and takes you on a journey of not only his own history and life experience but makes one consider one's own life in a poignant and sometimes bitter sweetness. A must have for all poetry lovers."

-Sarah Walker, fiction writer, professor of Anthropology at CSU, San Marcos

"Shells in the Sieve is a breath of fresh poetic imagery, reflections, and captivating thoughts. Exciting and inspiring piece of work. Fryback writes masterfully and in a charismatic manner, the language of poetry."

-Thomas M. Yeahpau, author of X-Indian Chronicles
