“Steve Klepetar's collection reads like the discovery of old family photos in an attic; the memories real, the time period simmering just a moment later. A brilliant collection of work.”
~ Timothy Gager, The Thursday Appointments of Bill Sloan
Family Reunion
“A striking collection, memories seemingly real, anchored in everyday details of food preparation and housework, then combined with surreal, Chagall-like flights of fancy that grip your heart and squeeze. The poems of love, loss and longing are full of earthly passion even when they fly.”
~ Keith Tornheim, Fireflies
"Each poem in this collection is a sketch, a portrait of a familial soul, laid out with both precision and affection.”
~ Christopher Reilley, Grief Tattoos and Breathing for Clouds
