This review is from: My Hair Turning Gray Among Strangers (Paperback)
My Hair Turning Gray Among Stragers is both poetry and a compelling story. In it, Mr. Quintana returns to the town where he was raised. He says: It seems I have been gone from home much longer than I thought. People there now have different versions of the very gossip they were spreading eighteen years ago. In the book you meet the characters that inhabit Quintana's memory and spirit. His use of language and imagry are sharp, clear, and sometimes deceptively simple. It is a modern Spoon River Antholgy set not in Edgar Lee Master's Yankee town; but, instead in the small towns of the Southwest that is also America's heritage. It is a truly wonderful book.
