The final collection of new poems from one of our finest and most beloved poets. The poems in this wonderful collection touch all of the events and places that meant the most to Philip Levine. There are lyrical poems about his family and childhood, the magic of nighttime and the power of dreaming; tough poems about the heavy shift work at Detroit's auto plants, the Nazis, and bosses of all kinds; telling poems about his heroes--jazz players, artists, and working people of every description, even children. Other poems celebrate places and things he loved: the gifts of winter, dawn, a wall in Naples, an English hilltop, Andalusia. And he makes peace with Detroit: "Slow learner that I am, it took me one night/to discover that rain in New York City/is just like rain in Detroit. It gets you wet." It is a peace that comes to full fruition in a moving goodbye to his home town in the final poem in the collection, "The Last Shift."

This may appear just another book set in backdrop of a small coal mining village in the north of England in the early part of the twentieth century...or so you might think....This is the remarkable true story of a man's life that should have been as simple as the next, except it was not....THIS IS TOM'S STORY. As a man all he wanted to do was make a simple living for himself and provide for his family. In spite of and perhaps because of events, his life would demand of him extraordinary courage to handle situations most would find impossible. In the midst of all of this he retained his spirit of humour and fun but even this would be sorely tested to breaking point...
