Come hear the latest work by local poet Bill Tremblay. In celebration of his most recent book Walks Along the Ditch, Tremblay will be reading this Thursday, May 5th, 8 p.m. at Letterpress & Publick House, 316 Willow St, Fort Collins (just north of downtown).
A review on Wolverine Press's Website praises the work:
The poems in Walks Along the Ditch represent a turn in Bill Tremblay’s long, distinguished career. The political and social concerns are still present, and the powerful lyric invention that has marked his previous collections. What’s new is the poems’ meditative interiority, the sense of a man alone with his faiths, failures, feelings, and thoughts as he walks daily along the irrigation ditch near his house, the Rocky Mountains and great Colorado sky in the background, dwarfing all that anyone ever thought, did, or believed. The whole book has about it a passionate, mesmerizing calm.
