Across the Channel: A Collection of Stories and Poems

From emerging sexuality to young love on the brink of adulthood, to antics of the author and his coworkers, to the tragic effects of war on the author's best friend from high school, this work contains experiences and insights of the author gleaned from years growing up and rearing a family while working factories and coal mine in southern Indiana and western Kentucky. Humorous, poignant, and thought provoking, the poems and stories focus on individuals and the effects of the world around them on the individual's psyche and actions.
