LIFE, DEATH, LOVE, and BABIES is a roadside monument to the totality of life.

Produktbeschreibung
LIFE, DEATH, LOVE, and BABIES is a roadside monument to the totality of life. Spanning roughly ten years of David Brehmer's life, this prismatic collection casts a meditative gaze on everything from trauma to gun violence to parenthood to music to time itself, offering moments large and small an equal share of the spotlight. It is a celebration, an investigation, a memorial sketched with curiosity and concision. Rob Lipton, former poet laureate, says, "David Brehmer loves life, the full-blooded travesty...disappointment, loss, love, but embracing it, ecstatically celebrating the everythingness of existence." And Quan Barry, award-winning author and UW poetry professor, remarks, "Life, Death, Love, and Babies reminds us of the wonder that is our birthright if we would only pay attention." It is a collection alternately riotous and reverent, but all told with a reflective eye, a patient heart, and unflinching honesty.
Autorenporträt
David Brehmer's poems have been featured in small rooms throughout the East Bay, in the pages of The MacGuffin, Humana Obscura, and scrolling by on beatnikcowboy.com. He writes to prove how much he loves life, despite his thoughts and words. He would like to think it will get better and suggests everyone take a walk in the woods at least once a week.
