In the plain-spoken tradition of the character-driven poetry of Philip Levine, Jane Kenyon, and Billy Collins, The Sound of Rain Without Water depicts the sometimes difficult, sometimes luminous lives of everyday people - mothers and fathers, sons and daughters, friends and lovers, wives and husbands, young men and young women - as they strive for the bittersweet happiness of hard-won wisdom. Reviewer PJ Krass notes: "Threads of happiness run in, around and through Charles Grosel's new collection of poems. These threads sometimes appear in the fragility of a spider's web, sometimes in the thirsty pulse of an alt-country song, sometimes in the remembered heft of a father's rake. Yet they're knit together by a sensibility capable of acknowledging both the past's reveries and the future's dreams, the fires of grief and the waters of love, the quick flash of pleasure and the legacy of pain." With the breadth of fiction refined in the crucible of poetry, The Sound of Rain Without Water is for all those stubborn readers who proudly proclaim, "I don't read poetry." These twenty-five poems might very well change their minds.
