Border Crossings - Paperback

by Raymond Berthelot (Author)

In Border Crossings, Berthelot's second chapbook with Finishing Line Press, the author explores the grey areas between the awake and the dream, the border lands, sometimes violent, sometimes an oasis, that form the buffer between rational and fantasy. Here are poems that reflect the world as it is, whether a Paris under the moon, or Latin America in the harsh light of reality, and the universe of the mind. These poems, rooted in the natural, can best be described as Charles Bowden, noted journalist, stated, are where the "border of our body vanishes and we become one with the land."
