Size: OS
These poems are rooted in stories overheard at the Wayburne Pig Cafe. They capture a rural community's true voice, peppered with gossip and arguments right off Main Street. Moving away from the "pig poems" which have delighted so many readers, News finds Lee more lyrical, gentle, and reflective than in previous works, yet once again his characters are heartbreaking, hilarious, and unfailingly entertaining.
"Reading Lee's poetry is like sitting on a wide porch in the summer with a favorite uncle you don't see often and listening to him ramble along with tales of the local townsfolk. Lee captures the grit and authenticity of 'country' speech… Recommended."-
