[Christopher]

Donora Hillard read from this tonight in Cleveland. The poetry was short and stark, but full of conceptual imagery and spiritual concreteness. Every line was a testament to the good and bad of the author's 'guardian angel', actor Jeff Bridges. How often do we align the timeline of our lives with the continuity of a celebrity or an era? Most of us have literally made music soundtracks to our lives, but what if we believed, without doubt, in an idol's human character and flaws just from the big screen?

Welcome to Donora's world and book.

Hillard holds a poetic line like a Spartan front. Stunning.

Good poems. Quick read. If you are a big fan of Jeff Bridges (and I am) you will like having this book. Jeff Bridges is a force.
