Art Homer's
Sight Is No Carpenter!


Start the new year right — with poetry! Art Homer's long-awaited new book of poetry has just been published. The poems of Sight Is No Carpenter are lyrical and thoughtful, taking the reader to the center of what it means to be human, where heart and root are one. Poet and critic Jonathan Holden says the poems "have a somber and enduring magnificence. They are a testament to the salvational nature of all art, when that art has been fully lived and, what is rarer, fully wrought." And Publishers Weekly says the poems are "rich in appreciation of lore and language that is still tinged with Old English, and of a people in many ways unchanged for ages."
