A Mountain Man - Paperback

by Kenneth Lumpkin (Author)

A Mountain Man gathers Kenneth Lumpkin's poetry across decades into a collection shaped by memory, desire, aging, love, masculinity, fatherhood, and endurance. Moving between intimate reflection and sharp social observation, these poems speak in a voice that can be humorous, abrasive, tender, and meditative at once. Lumpkin writes from lived experience, attending closely to the body, to time, and to the pressures of ordinary life without surrendering to self-pity or grandiosity. The result is a collection marked by persistence, candour, and a deep commitment to remaining fully alive in language.
