LOW-HANGING FRUIT is an archaeological dig deep into the realm of an aging woman's memory. At times, the narrators of these poems may embellish or be guilty of "retrospective distortion"-yet, they strive to tell her truth. Truth: nostalgia for a coming of age during a time of growing injustice and violence; the bullying of the defenseless and the different; the warping effects of religion. Artifacts of joy, loss and love are exhumed in poems on a range of topics: racism, suicide, obsessive (and unattainable) love and encroaching change on a farm community. Historical figures and a succession of animals also populate this collection. To renew their acquaintance, to learn their lessons, requires that once again, they be brought to life.
