Bill Glose wins 2020 Main Street Rag Poetry Book Award for Postscript to War
"This powerful collection of poetry by a veteran of the first Gulf War, Bill Glose, manages to be violently truthful, harshly hopeful, angry, and yet forgiving. Probably only a combat veteran could have written anything with this truth; but only a poet gifted with the ability to find the right images and words could have made the ugly, fearful, heroic truth so beautiful and moving.”
— David Anthony Sam, former President of Germanna Community College, author of Dark Fathers & Other Poems and Final Inventory.
