Mountain Redemption Nick McRae

"In Nick McRae's splendid Mountain Redemption, the contradictions of family and faith are hard to hold in balance. They are the fulcrum of a teeter totter that tips back and forth between passion and violence. But as he meditates on growing up in Georgia and the complexities of the faith he was born into, the poet himself is balanced, thoughtful, judicious?and loving. As he struggles to sustain that love, McRae sometimes borrows the cadences?large, passionate, and elegiac?of the prophets he knows so well."?Andrew Hudgins

Nick McRae is also the author of Moravia (Folded Word Press).
