You Know Where We Were: poems - Paperback

by Carol Hill Marks (Author)

From the wilds of the rural Midwest comes Carol Hill Marks's new volume of over thirty poems, grounded in memory and dreams. Inspired by a visit to her hometown after a long absence, Marks reveals a world where the candy dish is always full but the banks of the flooded creek are mighty slippery. Turn over a couple of rocks here, and you could find a crawdad but most likely some irony as well as sweet redemption.
