Overview

From the horrors of the war-torn jungles of Vietnam, to the hostility encountered coming home, to finding wholeness and redemption in love, to the unassailable grief of losing a beloved wife, John Marks has lived a storied life that now finds expression in this stunning new collection, Uncertain Shores. Marks deftly weaves through moments of beauty, pain, comedy, and cynicism, finding a universality that is unapologetically honest and raw while revealing moments of real beauty and tenderness, alongside sincere ugliness and inconsolable aching. Uncertain Shores is a collection that is sure to engage people of all ages, backgrounds, and experiences, and will forbid them from becoming comfortable or complacent in reading. This is poetry which finds majesty in execution, and humility in its expression, and is sure to keep you hooked on every page. Marks showcases wit, wordplay, and the ability to paint a picture with language that is free and exciting, and which is sure to be long-remembered even after the book is closed.
