Sobre IBD

In Quiet, Grit, Glory Ricky Ray displays a delightful delicacy and neatness while sharing a deep relationship with pain, and Rilke-echoing existential questioning. These poems are explorations into our interactions with the animal kingdom, as leaders and followers, as participants. Quiet, Grit, Glory is full of poems of silent courage, softly spoken, with a generosity of spirit that opens out to everyone.
