"The poems of Tim Hawkins range widely in geography, tone and style in
search of the extraordinary in the things we take for granted, guided
always by the mission of the saint and the lunatic to be both in the
moment and apart from it at the same time. While expressing admiration
for time-honored values like hard work, skill and fidelity to ideals
and individuals, they also exhibit a deep appreciation for the irony
and absurdity of existence, yet an unwillingness to submit to a cheap
affectation of nihilism. In Wanderings at Deadline, Hawkins takes us on
a tour of a landscape recognizable as part natural world and part
memory and imagination, where we explore human thought, feeling and
action at times resigned to hard truths and at times playful,
capricious and inexplicable."
