Road trips from Manitoba, Canada, to Palm Springs, CA, inspire these
poetic meditations by Danish-born, Canadian poet, playwright, essayist
and dramaturge Per K. Brask. Composed in accessible "plain speech," this
collection of 37 poems is grouped thematically into three sections,
offering a poetic travelogue of the journey and its destination ("On the
Road" and "Palm Springs"), along with meditations on life at home in
Winnipeg, Canada ("In Between"). Readers will enjoy the poet's personal
reflections on such offbeat locales as Fargo, ND, and Missoula, MT, as
well as his meditations inspired by hikes with his wife on the trails
around Palm Springs, CA.
