      "Big moments nestle casually against smaller, everyday observations, and everything is treated with the same amount of respect. It’s a neat trick, if you can figure out how to pull it off."--John Sweet"In his new collection, Provost writes from a myriad of perspectives, the son of an abusive father, the brother of a special needs sister, a football player/coach, a teacher, a barfly, a lover, a husband and so many more, this diversity allows the reader a rich, multidimensional experience. Effortlessly, Provost redirects the mirror from his subject back to himself, revealing his vulnerabilities in a way that allows the reader to take pause and consider their own flaws. I have been reading Provost for decades and what I admire most about his work is how he succinctly writes about the depths of depression, a poetic task that is not as easy as people assume." —Rebecca Schumejda, author & co-editor Trailer Park Quarterly
