Description
This book contains selected poems which run the gamut of emotional experience. Some of the poems are quite personal in nature, but non embarrassingly so. On the whole, the poems attempt to discover answers to questions concerning human nature, and to do so gracefully; they are poems, after all. The second section of this book is composed of two linked comedy stage plays, each in two acts, and a linked one-act "mystery" play. Linking is achieved through the sharing of characters and situations. Humor is achieved mostly through the abundant use of verbal and situational irony.
