More DescriptionTHE POEMS IN THIS LATE-IN-LIFE COLLECTION were written over a 20-year period starting in the early 2000's when Roger Kessel, then 65, lived on Cape Cod. His poetry transports the reader to the Cape and then to the Adirondacks with some stops in between-to happenings captured fortuitously by memory. The poems were written after dusk when the noise of the day had receded and a settled mind could tease them onto a written page.In exploring our connections to people, places and things Kessel's poetry yields fresh and vibrant looks at who we are. His plainly spoken free verse, with only an occasional diversion to inherited forms, unconditionally invites the reader to walk with him the porous border between the self and the external world.
