Description:

Where We Reach is an exotic romp in the mundane. Nothing special here but that which is special in each of us. With brutal honesty and sometimes acrid humor, M. D. Friedman soars and stumbles from confusion to love. This is his fourth poetry book in five years and includes many poems inspired by various works of art. M. D.’s photos enrich the visual experience of the reader. M. D. walks in and out of the artwork like it was a grocery store usually leaving with what he needs and without getting hurt.

Where We Reach is passionate, well-crafted, and deeply insightful poetry. [M. D.’s] control of sound and language is excellent. … a particularly unique, very powerful voice and set of insights as well: …[His] understanding of the cross-connection of the arts, and … ability to read artists of other genres, is both extraordinary and very, very moving. ` Jared Smith
