Gig at the Amtrak

By Joe Manning

Gig At The Amtrak is a collection of poems by Joe Manning, supplemented by some related old newspaper clippings.Review: "Joe Manning weaves together his poetry with stories from old newspaper clippings to show us the human connections between days gone by and life as it is lived now in the coffee shops and train stations and along the riverbanks of small towns. His poems capture so perfectly the natural cadence and rhythms of everyday people that we feel as if we are eavesdropping. We come away reminded that community is as essential to our well-being as the air we breathe."-Elizabeth Winthrop, author of over fifty works of fiction for adults and children, including Dog Show, Island Justice, The Castle in the Attic and Dumpy La Rue
