""Miles Budimir sends terse verse postcards ranging from the vast west of Cheyenne to his ancestral Balkans. Illustrated by his expressionistic black and white photos, he plumbs the particulars of place to show how here resonates everywhere. Throughout these travel sketches and chance meetings, he realizes the journey is always within."" -Ray McNiece, American Academy of Poetry Poet Laureate Fellow ""From ""fields of windmills"" to the 7th Avenue Bridge, the reader journeys through cities and continents in Budimir's lyric travelogue. In a nearly audible vernacular cadence, the poet portrays the textured beauty and grit of each destination. Searching and tender, these poems lead us to both far-flung and interior places, all of which we visit gladly."" -Barbara Sabol, author of Mapping the Borderlands
