Under the Big Top


Blogger Jacqueline Snider gives some love to Michael Harris' new collection Circus.

"I found 'Circus' a thoroughly enjoyable read. The different voices, timbres and points of view are engaging and eye-opening (and for the chihuahua Oliver, leg-lifting) in their honesty, maturity and genuine understanding of what makes--and doesn't make--human nature tick."

Here's a taste of some of Harris's poetry.

Yup. I'm really liking this book of poems, too. We don't hear much about Michael Harris out here in the west country. Hope that changes.

Thanks David. I think he's one of our very best.
