the City Fox and others in our community by Chris Parker
‘Chris Parker’s poetry speaks to the constant complexity that cannot be overcome. The City Fox is both brain-wise and mindful.’

‘I've not come across a writer like this. I really can't think of one...These poems not only know the life or lives of which they speak, but also that of the unknown reader.’
Mark Mayes
Author of The Gift Maker
