Faraway Tables Reviewed in Loch Raven Review

I’m proud to share a review of Faraway Tables, published in Loch Raven Review, that was written by the late editor and poet Dan Cuddy.

Dan wrote:

“The commonplace is wonderfully changed by [Goodman’s] words into a full experience for reflection and celebration.”

He noted the emotional accessibility of the poems and their grounding in everyday life, describing the book as one that “engages the reader immediately.”

He even wrote, “Goodman maintains his quality of expression and insights throughout the book.”

I'm grateful for Dan’s thoughtful words..
