The Word in Edgewise (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780989872423)

Sean M. Conrey teaches and coordinates the Project Advance program in the English and Textual Studies department at Syracuse University in Syracuse, New York, where he lives most of the year with his wife, Carol Fadda-Conrey, and his two daughters, Emily and Mira. He spends his summers writing in Beirut, Lebanon. A chapbook of his poems, A Conversation with the Living, was published by Finishing Line Press in 2009 and his monograph Coming to Terms with Place, a theoretical work concerned with how language affects our sense of place, was published in 2007. An album of original songs, Hosmer and Ninth, recorded with The Mercury City String Band, a revolving group of musicians, is available on CD and online through Creative Commons. This is his first full-length collection of poetry.
