Synopsis

Certain friendships endure across decades. Some voices persist beyond death.

In The Reunion, poet Floyd Collins reconstructs a vanished world with notable tenderness, wit, and lyrical skill. Set against the landscape of the Mississippi Delta, he recalls the people, places, and moments that have influenced a lifetime, including summer nights, childhood experiences along Southern waterways, and the loves, losses, and friendships that persist despite the passage of time.

Central to this collection is Collins's elegiac tribute to his lifelong friend Richard Wooten, whose death prompts a meditation on memory, mortality, and the persistence of the past. Collins integrates themes from the natural world and literary tradition, producing poetry that is intellectually engaging and fundamentally human.

The Reunion, characterized by sensory detail, Southern history, and reflective insight, extends beyond a collection of poems. It serves as an act of remembrance, celebration, and recognition of defining relationships.

Ultimately, those we love are not entirely absent; they persist wherever memory allows their voices to be heard.
