Irresistably accessible "Pig Poet" - and subject of PBS documentary - is half preacher, half farmer, half genius.
These poems are rooted in stories overheard at the Wayburne Pig Cafe. They capture a rural community''s true voice, peppered with gossip and arguments right off Main Street. Moving away from the "pig poems" which have delighted so many readers, News ?nds Lee more lyrical, gentle, and re?ective than in previous works, yet once again his characters are heartbreaking, hilarious, and unfailingly entertaining.

"Reading Lee''s poetry is like sitting on a wide porch in the summer with a favorite uncle you don''t see often and listening to him ramble along with tales of the local townsfolk. Lee captures the grit and authenticity of ''country'' speech… Recommended."-Library Journal

David Lee was the subject of a recent PBS documentary, The Pig Poet. Winner of the 1995 Western States Book Award, Lee has also been the recipient of fellowships from the National Endowment for the Humanities. He lives in St. George, Utah.
