Praise for Robert Morgan:
There is comfort and humor in Morgan's evocation of country people trying to survive.
— Publishers WeeklyAny new collection of poems by Robert Morgan is a gift... In the past thirty years I have learned a great deal from this man, who is exemplary as a poet, as a prose writer, and as a human being.
— Ted Kooser, former U.S. Poet LaureateThe poet laureate of Appalachia.
