Aprašymas

In Wherever This All Ends, Leland Seese negotiates the catalog of late adulthood's small indignities and existential dilemmas, its series of good-byes. Each poem evokes and acknowledges not just the losses, but the graces found along the way, accepting what is as ephemeral as "Lightning, here and gone."

-Elizabeth Austen, Washington State Poet Laureate and author of the poetry collection Every Dress A Decision

Leland Seese opens and closes this debut chapbook with baseball poems. "...A pop, a sting / the universe in the pocket of your mitt," and the poems that follow show us the sweetness and stings of what it means to be human. "We listen in an attitude of grace," Seese says and grace is what he offers in these poems about family, friendships, grief and wonder. "Wherever this all ends, / it still don't end," and the poems tell us what doesn't end: connection, tenderness and wonder, always wonder.

-Michele Bombardier, author of What We Do
