One Wild World Away

In his third collection of poetry, One Wild Word Away, Geffrey Davis gives his inner life as many rich voices as are in a choir — bereavement, love, and doubt sing out from his poems. His emotions bleed through each page, and his readers are a witness to his raw feeling, both simply and wrenchingly expressed. With his carefully chosen words, Davis strikes flints to illuminate his private darkness.
