"The best book of this age" After reading this book, I wept. Kris Krainock is a magician with his words. This classic tale of poetry, love and loss should be the staple of what we call good writing in American society. Krainock is the type of writer whose skill is shown not only through his variety of words and gritty descriptions but also through the feelings that erupt within while reading each and every line. I think I speak for everyone when I say; I look forward to seeing more of this young authors work.
