Blue Numbers, Red Life
Winner of the 2000 North Carolina Writers' Network
Poetry Chapbook Competition, selected by Gregory Orr
"There's a tradition of doctor poets and the things they know: stories
about people in crisis, an alertness to details, and a clear-eyed knowing of
death and love and the necessary jeopardy of living. These poems are proudly in
that tradition...what you'd hope for from someone who might hold your life in
his hands: who might, a poet, hand you your life transformed."
