Midwest Book Award Finalist

"He is a wonderful chronicler of the people's journey."

Meridel LeSueur

“Kevin’s appreciation of the richness of difference as he traverses from city to country in these tightly structured, deceptively prosaic poems is laced through with a calm but delicious irony.”

Dave Moore

“Whether Kevin’s vision is turned outward or inward, he is a master of shrewdly observed detail.  His ability to elevate ordinary life resonates throughout his work, and his capacity for connecting with the dispossessed shows him to be, above all, a poet with heart.”  

Ethna McKiernan
