Everything I Love Restored

by Matthew Freeman

Overview

Matthew Freeman's newest poetry collection presents a romantic vision wherein the environment can range from ecstatic to sinister. Steeped in urban shamanism, the poems reflect a desperate search for the American Sublime, the author's search for the clarity of salvation, his love of language, and his hope that the poor and destitute will not be forgotten.
