Publisher's Summary

The tides unbroken. The hidden rocks knowing nothing of battlements. The mind its own white room washed by a confluent prayer...

“To enter into Dear Excavator,” says American Book Award winner Ed Bok Lee, “is to wade into an epic river - part sour dream mash, part metaphysical disquisition, part tinker's time machine, all lifeline to the jugular sublime austral light in the tradition of William Christenberry and Walt Whitman.”

This debut full-length collection from prose-poet Evan D. Williams comprises two dozen pieces selected from literary journals - including Borderlands and The Mud Season Review - and a further two dozen pieces that appear here for the first time.

The audiobook version is narrated by multiple Voice Arts Award winner Xe Sands.

“Somewhere in the middle of this singularly post-Gothic landscape,” Lee continues, “you'll awaken to find yourself soaring through an Inner Americana exhumed back to miraculous life by the sheer forces of love and lyricism.”
