The West Coast of Heaven: Poems

By Jack Moser

The West Coast of Heaven is a brave book, perhaps the bravest of Jack Moser's poetry collections, of which this is the seventh published. Toward the end of this book he announces without embarrassment that he is bipolar. This will not surprise readers familiar with Jack's work, with its open and honest passion that can be pegged as alternately manic or depressive, revealing the poet to be alternately gloriously happy with the world, with God, and with humankind and also angry and discouraged with the same. Jack Moser is a man and a poet who loves Ireland, his family, his patients, and all the rest of life, especially Shekhinah, the female aspect of God's Holy Spirit. But this same man and this same poet has fierce, angry feelings about the brutality of war, the economics of greed, and humanity's historical and persistent cruelty.
