Stick Tight Man

Poetry February 2009 ISBN 978-0-9844118-0-1 26 pages Softcover, 5½" x 8½"

This is Jim Lally's first poetry collection.

"Like the man covered with stick-tights that cling after a walk in a summer field, these reports from Jim Lally's world -- about falling barns, clothes-lines, spring peepers, ghost trees, poke berries, Quaker meetings, and Daniel Boone (even an homage to the letter W) -- stick with the reader long after the journey. What holds them to us is a discerning eye, an ear for language and for nature in its hummings, a readiness to explore the small ground which opens to the resonating world around us." - Richard Taylor,
