A beautiful book, Joe. You capture those wide Montana spaces, the stifling Mississippi Delta, the small town nuance of Iowa, and along the way smudge the lines between poetry and prose. But always, always it is the people and their complex relationship to place that transform these essays into gems. Thank you. Again.

Thanks for sharing the poetry and fiction at the end. Too, came home from vacation to find Every Sky at Home on our doorstep. Cannot wait to dive into to it.

Yes, a poet - how wonderful indeed. Thank you for your words (and news!), Joe.

Just pre-ordered on Amazon.

Your memoir introduced eastern Montana to me, and the feels of family and place still vibrate.
