| Publisher Description: Carol Townsend's first chapbook presents 24 poems chronicling her life growing up on her father's farm in downstate New York in the 1950s and 60s. Raised on a small family dairy farm in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains whose one hundred-fifty acres she roamed as a child, her poetry evokes poignant images of farm life. Her family's rural delivery address was Happy Avenue, Swan Lake, always an embarrassing revelation; nevertheless, indicative of heart-warming relationships and memories, especially of her father. |
