In this latest collection, Michael R. Milano's dry wit and amused, accepting view of the human condition are as evident and as they were in his earlier work. But there is, as well, even more than ever, a depth of understanding that offers true wisdom to any reader willing to receive it. Joy and sorrow, he seems to say, good living and a capacity to face the darker side of our experience and our existence, combine to make each day magical. These are poems not to be missed.
