Mark Kraushaar

The Uncertainty Principle Mark Kraushaar

In his splendid new collection, Mark Kraushaar addresses a tentative and awkward, sometimes funny though frequently heart-breaking struggle to find a path to meaning in the world, a task made more difficult still by the struggle itself. Mark Kraushaar was born in Washington DC and grew up outside Boston in Concord, Massachusetts. He attended Marlboro College in Vermont, where he studied literature and writing, worked briefly as a high school English teacher, then as a cab driver in Boston. After living in London for a few years and working as a welder he went to nursing school in Madison, Wisconsin where he has worked as a nurse since the 1980s. ""An informal, down-to-earth tone permeates the verses, which have a raw, inner conviction that will resonate with readers of all backgrounds.""-The Midwest Book Review
