review

"Reading poems from this collection over the last couple of years in various magazines, journals and at his blog did not prepare me for the power of the book as a whole. This collection has a nearly perfect narrative arc. Every poem falls into place, ebbs and flows seamlessly to the next and from section to section as Goodman elegantly, tenderly and heartbreakingly details his older brother's death from cancer."

Thank you, Collin, for your close and thoughtful read! Deep thanks also to everyone for leaving comments.
