One Year in Paris

is a collection of poems. Writings range from the mundane to the realm of spirits, from the edge of anguish to unbridled joy and exuberant hope. From audacious to irreverent, always with disconcerting honesty, the words reveal a dangerously simple and personal philosophy.

The poems explore the moody nexus of love and belief, the shadowy worlds of emotions, where poems are paintings of perceptions. From life to death to life to the sweetness of a child's presence, the alert reader will glimpse the revealed soul.
