Russell Thornton
"Thornton’s poems inhabit a world hauntingly human and wholly material, a beautifully articulated realm of the awkward dance between spirit and matter. Boulders in a coastal creek seem to this poet to be the mute strongholds of human voices. A grandfather’s set of keys opens a stoic optimism in his own life..."...[a] remarkably talented emerging poet."
