This fourth collection of poems explores the life of a beloved brother Chris through the eyes of his sister. We are introduced to his childhood of potential and tension, his passionate mother and disciplinarian father. We learn of the relationship between brother and sister as his years unfold, his hard working life, his understanding of and care for the marginalized, restless impulses, struggle to find personal meaning and dignity. After the sudden death of his mother Chris's experimenting with drugs results in a battle between his desperate desire to stay clean and in control of his life and the insidious pull of the drug world, as expressed through the anguished gaze of his sister. While addressing serious issues these poems celebrate life in all its joy, sadness and complexity. The companion volume of poetry, Blue Halo, is also available through Annalese Press.
