Ken Fontenot’s The Forests of Autumn celebrates a life lived in poetry. Exploring his Cajun heritage, his struggles with existential angst, as well as his love of classical music, philosophy, the German language, and other writers, Fontenot’s poems are 'not so much a creation as a discovery.' A true original who likes 'to be me often rather than sometimes,' Fontenot 'empoem(s)' us with tenderness, wit, and the mystery of the everyday. -Grace Bauer, author of Unholy Heart: New & Selected Poems
