Angels, Thieves, and Winemakers

"Joe Mills takes the chestnut of wine as a provider of truth and gives us something wonderfully original. These poems are smart without being stuffy, humorous but never coy, and full of startlingly sharp details that took my breath away. Mills' observations about love, intimacy, and the smallest details of domestic life make this collection full of nuance, longing, and, yes, truth." - Lindsey Crittenden, author of The Water Will Hold You: A Skeptic Learns to Pray and The View from Below
