<p>Memory's Village is a collection of poems that celebrates and contemplates the author's move into a rural traditional village in the mountains of northern New Mexico after spending most of his life in large U.S. cities. As with any of us in the early days of a major relocation, his first impressions are celebratory, accepting, admiring. But after a brief visit of some weeks, he and his wife move in as permanent residents and the more discriminating and critical mind takes over. Filled with humor, praise, at times irritation, the reader gets an inside view of the author's attitudes and judgments as well as the feel of the land, the residents, the life of the every day. Written in the early years of the poet's stay, it is clear that the positive clearly overcame the negatives, since the poet and his wife still live in the village after more than twenty five years.</p>
