Presence is Scott Wiggerman's second volume of poetry, the long-awaited follow-up to Vegetables and Other Relationships. In Presence, according to Cyrus Cassells, "Wiggerman uses an intransigent stain as an emblem of buoyant integrity in the face of intolerance and exclusion."
"Presence evokes the elements--palpable qualities of air, earth, water, and fire, and more--the difficult-to-render textures of familial love, lovers, loss, renewal, memory, and what one needs to stay present to the elemental world."
--Laurie Kutchins
"Wiggerman's marvelous craft gives shape to his versatility and poignant insight. He is a must-read American poet. Share him with everyone you know who cares about words and the truth."
--Robert McDowell
