description: In My Brother Running , Wesley McNair draws his inspiration from such seemingly commonplace fixtures as a local eccentric, a neighbor's dog, and a small-town Maine landscape, investing them with a mystery and stature beyond the reach of everyday experience. But the centerpiece of the book is the extended, thirteen-part title poem, a memorial to a brother dead too soon. Haunting, elegiac, and deeply affecting, this collection is also now included in The Town of No &amp; My Brother Running , also published by Godine.
