In FLIGHT RECORD, Bruce McIntosh takes the reader on a poetic journey, a saga in verse, weaving a bittersweet story of a son’s experiences with his airline pilot father. It starts with a child’s point-of-view overlaid with the grown man’s perspective, a melding of innocence and experience. The perspective shifts as the author grows, and moves through awe and admiration, despair and anger, longing, love, and understanding. These poems give us vivid glimpses of moments in time. Like a worn family photo album, snapshots from the past build upon each other to form a moving saga told with heart, empathy, and pathos. Memories are distilled into perfectly crafted tableaux that allow emotions to pass through to us. The delicately drawn specifics ground us in a time and place and emotional truths that are at once personal and universal, epic and mundane. This is not a memoir, but a vivid, moving, verse-memorial to a father.
