Description
Emanuel di Pasquale refers to In Truth as "his little book of poems." The book may be small, but the poems are far from little. Going beyond connecting the reader to nature in a lyrical and imagistic manner, these poems bathe the reader in their simple silence and open a rift in the fabric of that nature exposing the reader to a glimpse of an eternity within themselves.
