Additional information
by John Brandi (Author)
"The poems in John Brandi's new collection, The Great Unrest, illuminate a lifetime of travels--southern Italy, Crete, India, China, Alaska, the Caribbean--as well as the intimate landscape of New Mexico, his homeland for fifty years. Sober, unfiltered, defiant and pulsing with joie de vivre, these poems represent the interior and exterior world of a seeker who refuses to give in to the darkness of our times."
