Description
This anthology of poems and short stories is an homage to Texas singer/song-writer Robert Earl Keen, who stands in the songwriter/storyteller tradition of Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark, John Prine, and Keen's contemporaries Lyle Lovett and James McMurtry. The poems and short stories here are each inspired by Keen's songs, some expansions of themes of Keen's songs, others move in creative directions suggested by the characters in his work. Keen's songs are impressive for their literary sensibility (he was an English major at Texas A&M University) and have influenced many songwriters as well as authors of fiction and poetry.
