"Rick Dove has an ear and a hand for verse like few others. He is a convincing performer, with an assured presence, and execution akin to a precious secret being delicately unwoven, from one soul to another, line by line.

A writer that delivers deeply personal and endearing poetry with tender stabs of an avant garde style, Rick writes lyrically to let words breathe and unequivocally banish the divide between stage and page."

...I am a writer, but as John Irving said, "Half my life is an act of revision."
