TRACK THIS: A Book of Relationship by Stephen Bett

How deceptively simple they are. There is a suppleness of line that I find particularly engaging and a sense of the spoken voice that is much stronger than usual. I really like the form of "address". It's, of course, perfect for what you are trying to achieve. I can sense the struggle of trying to be sincere about something that is important to someone who is important to you. It is a directness that necessitates utter honesty. Well done my friend.

—Ken Cathers

I like these poems. Will be a great book of beauties. Very sweet and clear!

—Michael Rothenberg
