Thaddeus Rutkowski - Tricks of Light
Thaddeus Rutkowski - Tricks of Light
POETRY
The poems in Tricks of Light meditate on myriad ways of seeing not merely the small, astounding mysteries of life but how seeing, the effort to see clearly, might be the most important thing of all. At a time when reality itself is questioned and truth appears in short supply, the poet, through his keen eye, assures us that enlightenment is not only possible, but necessary.

“A beautiful collection, full of keen observations, wry and self-deprecating humor, and twists that make poem after poem a surprise and delight.” —Scintilla.info
“A vivid and impacting work…It's a demonstration of how every conversation, every encounter, and every detail we come across could have more to it, and about how we recall these moments can say more about us than we realize.”—Quail Bell Magazine
“A deadpan sense of timing that is always flawless in its delivery…A yellow brick road of strange beauty and wondrous sights and sounds.”—Misfit Magazine
