Melodious, lyrical, Richard Tillinghast’s poems of place and displacement are deeply personal as they look back over a long and eventful life. Tillinghast also focuses on troubled and troubling aspects of the American story: the Indian Wars of the 19th century and the history of race relations in his native South, from slavery to the country’s current racial reckoning.
