Description

Husbandry Poems by Matthew Dickman is a poignant collection of poems that explore the complexities of single fatherhood and domestic life. Written during a time of great upheaval, these vivid couplets reveal the poet's anxieties, love, and humor as he navigates the challenges of caring for his children alone. Through his poetry, Dickman sheds light on the often-overlooked realities of parenting, embracing both the beauty and the mess that comes with it. With tender precision, he explores the terrain of his children's dreams and nightmares, and the residual impacts of his own parents' experiences. This is a love song from a father to his children, one that finds meaning in the everyday domestic work of sustaining three lives. With its unique blend of intimacy and honesty, Husbandry Poems offers a powerful exploration of what it means to be a husband, a father, and a human being.
