A moving, intimate cycle of poems which lay bare the emotions of a man going through the process of leaving his family to be with someone he deeply loves.In the unadorned, matter-of-fact, poetic style he is well-known for, Bill Robertson takes us along on one of the most complicated emotional journeys a man can endure - the ending of one relationship so that another may begin.There are no easy answers, no free passes, no one else to blame, to scapegoat. The heart demands it and it must be done. What remains is to accept the guilt, the anger. And deal with the effect on the kids, the parents, the friends. Robertson leads us through this emotional labyrinth with him, not skipping by even one emotion-charged moment - positive or negative.
