## Description

Description   "West is a quiet collection of observant meditations spread across wide pages. Jim LaVilla-Havelin and his artist wife Lucia live on acreage outside of Lytle, south of San Antonio. Well-acquainted with urban areas...they are not 'new' to the country after a dozen years. This accounts for LaVilla-Havelin's precise recognition of wildlife and seasonal changes -- especially drought conditions -- throughout the poems. Placed like cows in a field, the words find their rhythm in spacing, a musical timing calling to open meadows dotted with cows and white egrets that 'open rooms in the flat blue// tilting startling white in the sun/they create/distance//a blue box of air they're crossing' ('When') . . . . LaVilla-Havelin approaches the place with humility and quietness. He makes us witness it as he does." --Robert Bonazzi, San Antonio Express-NewsNumber of Pages: 112Genre: PoetrySub-Genre: AmericanFormat: PaperbackPublisher: Wings Press (TX)Book theme: GeneralAuthor: Jim Lavilla-HavelinLanguage: English Estimated shipping dimensions: 7.9INCH X 8.2INCH X 1.0INCH DPCI : 248-48-5691 UPC : 9781609405489 TCIN : 52837415 Estimated shippimg weight:  1.55POUND
