This review is from: Distance and Proximity (Paperback)

I fell in love with Distance & Proximity the moment I opened the book. Thomas A. Clark's prose poems left me with a sense of awe and wonder. I didn't want to put it down! Now, as I slip into a good pair of walking shoes and venture outdoors, I'll remember to to stay focused and enjoy nature at its fullest. Thank you, Thomas A. Clark!
