Leavin’ The Buckeye State
September 24, 2008
The last time I went to Ohio, I was trying to get to Sandusky, and yet I almost ended up in Cincinnati. I had strayed over 200 miles away from the roller coasters and cotton candy I felt were my due, and I was even further away from home.
Adam Sol’s stunning new book of poetry, “Jeremiah, Ohio,” begins in the Buckeye state and travels to The Big Apple, but not one word strays from the right path.
In September, I interviewed Adam Sol about his new book for Northern Poetry Review. And tomorrow I plan to attend the launch in Toronto. Come feel the hot gust.

Oh, Ohio.
I was born there and have missed it and not missed it.
I’m enjoying your blog…fun posts! Congrats on being selected for the anthology. I saw Molly Peacock read at the Vancouver Writers Festival this past weekend, and she mentioned the anthology. Sounds good!
I’ve driven through it, visited it, missed it and not missed it.
I’m looking forward to the anthol, too, thanks! Vancouver. Another place I miss. Minus the come-from-the-ground-rain.
Great site of your own, by the way!
