Reflections intertwined with memory, such as in pieces like 'The Uncle I Never Met', are poignant and moving as LeDue reminds us of the fragility life hinges upon-the chances we take or miss. The recollections of family life, dynamics and growing up are also wonderfully relatable. But, for me, LeDue's greatest work lies in his ability to write about expression, with the image of \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003esummer rain being the applause we need to hear\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e imprinting itself forever in my conscience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-Kristiana Reed, Editor of \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eFree Verse Revolution: literary magazine\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Kind of Noise Worth Writing Down, \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eLeDue offers us masterful, haunting, and nostalgic reflections on life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-Jessica Purgett, Editor-in-Chief and Founder, \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Mark Literary Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Kind of Noise Worth Writing Down\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/i\u003egathers LeDue's poems into an austere and meditative temple. Imbued with the silence of white space and exact spare language, these poems traverse time, spanning childhood poverty to adult relationships, caretaking, isolation, and the everyday events that comprise a human. Within their temperance swell bits of anger, frustration, forgiveness, and solitude-masterfully conveyed through precise, diminutive passages.
