Off The Knife: Fifteen Poems and Three Pieces of Prose

This book represents the very best work of Theodore Schroetter that could be found. The goal of this short sampling of fifteen poems and three prose pieces is to give the world a taste of this relatively unknown author. He poses simple questions about what it is to be human, animal or none of the above. This slender, but potent, collection gives us a fresh sense of perception and openness to life itself. The work has a lightness about it, even when the topics are quite serious. These poems and stories reflect a rare balance of personality and a grounded sense of the world. The writer is full of common sense and quiet revelations. This slender volume is a literary morsel not to be missed.
