Love Ends in a Tandem Kayak - Paperback

by Derrick C. Brown (Author)

For fans of the fantastical. For fans of unforgettable, gut-punch imagery. This visceral book veers wildly from humor to heartache. This new collection holds three chapters that venture from love and memory into loneliness and sorrow, ending in the chase for hardcore joy. Due to patient years of editing, tweaking, and sorting, this is Brown's most thoughtful collection. The pages have an economical beauty, and it is the most complete, compelling, and stunning book the author has ever written.
