“Kevin Heaton – Breaking Ground”
A beautiful collection of contemporary poetry written by Kevin Heaton, edited by Anthony Shields, published by Midwest Literary Magazine with a forward by Doug Whiteman. Kevin Heaton demonstrates superb poetic style with a confident voice. Nature is attended to throughout this book in ways that are both new and surprising. The language is insightful and musical. The poet is ever-present, just behind the scenes, employing an unstrained style that is a pleasure to read. This is a collection you will read again and again

Today, I received my personal copy from Amazon.com of my brother-in-law's newly published collection of poetry. Pride flowed through me as I held the slick covered chapbook, adorned with an appropriate picture of red sunbaked earth from a dried up river bottom, and filled with his powerful words. The new collection, Breaking Ground by Kevin Heaton ISBN 13-978-0-9832463-2-9, will certainly break new ground in the world of contemporary poetry. Kevin is attuned to nature as he leads you through a range of seasons, weather, history, etc. Expect to have your mind stimulated by memories, shared experiences, thought provoking subjects, and even visually enhanced by his well chosen images and two artistic shape poems. Anyone, who lived in Mannford, OK when the tornado struck in 1984, will be awestruck by "Aeolus' Vengeance" on page 25. Be prepared to read and reread the poems which may have you running to Google to refresh your vocabulary and clarify mythological allusions. I encourage everyone to order their own personal copy even if you think poetry is not your bag. This collection has relevant reads for everyone and could be a beautiful coffee table copy that will stimulate many discussions. I can personally put you in touch with the author if you should buy the book and wish to comment and discuss his works.
