The Yeoman's Work: Poems - Paperback

by Garrett Stack (Author)

Garrett Stack's Yeoman's Work mines the richness of life's pitstops--weddings, funerals, trips to the Quik-Fil and Supercuts--and illuminates how closely personal narrative is tethered to place. From cowboys making coffee to doers and dreamers and taxidermists, Stack's work is a vital cultivation of individuality and an homage to the complexity of domesticity. "A place doesn't exist/ until there's a story/ spinning around it," he writes. How lucky we are to hear those stories.
