George De Gregorio's poetry is rooted in both the everyday and the universal. Big themes like world war and the sporting life (he is the author of a biography of Joe DiMaggio) co-exist with details of family life and the everyday existence of Rutherford, N.J., the town where he has lived for the last fifty years (and home of famed poet-doctor William Carlos Williams).

Organized into a double album in the manner of Cream's "Wheels of Fire" or Jimi's "Electric Ladyland" or Guns n'Roses' "Use Your Illusion," the poems of Mark Fogarty's questing work walk through the valley between folly and wisdom, relying on the magic of the blues to transform painful experiences into joyful ones!
