The poems in this humane collection are hard and beautiful. They
are hard, because the locals here are marginalized and somewhat
lost, yet beautiful because they live with hope, and because each
poem in this heartfelt book is accompanied by singing. Behind this
cast of characters is the poet himself, a living spirit, capturing
the human voice, swinging back and forth like the symbol evoked by
the title of this honest and necessary collection. This is at once
a portrait and a vision rendered into lines, notation for a place
and time and the saintly people there. It is a gift to be in such
able hands, and a further gift to turn the pages of their labor.
Three cheers for this delight -Maurice Manning
