Still Standing

Earl LeClaire is a leviathan; his path has taken him to depths most of us cannot fathom. His work is direct, blunt, angry, tender, and unstintingly honest. These observant poems shout from the page. Tales of injustice and adventure, full of humorous irony, alternate with gentle love poems so exquisitely felt that they break your heart. Earl walks through life wide awake, and we are lucky to be led through his world, feeling the heartbeat of a writer in love with words.
