Al Ortolani's most recent collection of poems, The Taco Boat , focuses not just on the people of the American Midwest, but on the connection to the humor and pragmatism of working men and women. His poems are vignettes from the fields of Kansas, the hills of the Ozarks, and the streets of Kansas City. They are about good dogs and crazy cats. His people are family and strangers alike.

The poems in The Taco Boat are about the relationships people build, dismantle, and build again
