The Woods, The Sea, Pluff Mud and Me: Poems About Nature on the South Carolina Coast by Danny Willcutt
inspiring
reflective
slow-paced
4.5
I was gifted this copy by the authors brother. I have little frame of reference for poetry... other than what they teach you in high school/ college English. It seemed/ seems like a lofty and somewhat inaccessible genre to me. Not this book. I get what Danny speaks to because I've lived and visited where he speaks of (not nearly as long as he though). There's no pretense or snobbery. Just a simple country man speaking about a place he obviously loves deeply. (The River and Squirrel Fight are two of my favs).
