Whether the speaker of the poem is spreading tar on a roof with his father, envisioning Sinatra spurned by a lover, or wearing a Mets cap in a cathedral, the tone is consistently appealing: charmed and charming. The love poems to his wife are written with enormous feeling and no sentimentality. Not a word is out of place in this book and Suermondt's voice is equal to the vast range of people and places encountered throughout the collection.\"--John Skoyles, Author of \u003cem\u003eSuddenly It's Evening: Selected Poems\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"You will marvel at the poems in Tim Suermondt's new collection the way you would marvel at a spring bubbling up from God-knows-where with a water so sweet and clear that you can't help but cup your hands and drink deeply.
