What about the other days of our lives, those that will never merit Silver, Gold, or Diamond, yet when added together-joy mingled with sorrow, heartbreak leavened by laughter-ultimately constitute this thing we call life? These are \u003cem\u003eThe Unnumbered Anniversaries\u003c\/em\u003e Kurt Olsson seeks to commemorate within these unflinching poems and pages. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt heart, The Unnumbered Anniversaries is a testament to the ordinary, those fragments of time and place, of people and things, that distance and reflection somehow transform into the extraordinary. \u003cem\u003eThe empty soda can that doubled as an ashtray.

Indeed, this is not a collection to be read once and set aside with a pleasant nod or two, but rather an experience you will return to with cherished frequency.
