description: Dave Englund is an inspired poet. He says so himself. This collection of his poems illustrates the diversity and eccentricity of his poetic expression. His poems are intimate, rueful, wise, playful, whimsical, bawdy, sardonic and astonishing. There is no doubt that he welcomes the people, places and circumstances he encounters every day of his life. He especially loves his three-generational family, which is currently comprised of 28 individuals- even when family affairs are not proceeding quite as he had hoped they would. There is no doubt that Dave is downright American in his perspectives on life-which only means that, underlying his words, you can often recognize major North American faultlines. Dave''s poems are clear and understandable. You won''t have to struggle to comprehend them. A few of these poems may offend you, but none of them will take you for granted. Above all, they are meant to inform and to entertain you. These poems are sometimes more serious, and sometimes less serious than they seem. Which is which-is for you to decide.
