Overview

"Chris Dean's brilliant second book of poetry focuses on the stories that make each of us who we are, the stories that connect us. A Debt of Words I don't want anything from poetry, I want to give back to it. I want to speak balms and antidotes that comfort and heal, sing connections and write repairs so we all feel less alone, blaze paths and clear overgrowth so others can find their way. I don't want anything from poetry. I'd rather write to repay the debt of words I owe to those who have done the same for me. ""Miracles, prayers answered. Poems from the creative forces of the universe channeled through the pages of WE'RE ALL STORIES in THE END. Chris Dean's poems are diamonds. Chris Dean is a new voice to be reckoned with. WE'RE ALL STORIES in THE END is a masterpiece."" Ron Whitehead, U.S. National Lifetime Beat Poet Laureate ""Chris Dean is a poet of exceptional ability. The way she catches images and works them toward the reader's mind and heart is simply amazing. Just consider her new work, WE'RE ALL STORIES IN THE END. She is a force to be reckoned with and I predict you will see more and more of her work. Get ready, America, there is a new poet on the block and she is about to wake and shake you dearly."" Lee Pennington, a Kentucky Poet Laureate"

"One morning, years ago, as I drove my giant tractor across a coal barren wilderness, working for Kentucky Reclamation, reclaiming strip mined lands, I prayed for a miracle, a sign of hope to show me I was on the right path, finding a way to survive, helping to heal the earth, and live free as a rebel poet. As I prayed I looked up and there was a white dove flying six feet above my head. That's how Chris Dean's poems arrived from out of the blue. Miracles, prayers answered.
