Let the Voices

"Let the Voices" by Kevin Goodan is a poignant collection of poetry that delves into the profound unease of living alongside those whose lives have been tragically impacted by the violence of poverty. Published in 2016 by Red Hen Press, this compelling paperback features 64 pages that transport readers to a trailer park on the Flathead Indian Reservation in western Montana. Through evocative verses, Goodan gives a voice to childhood companions who are often left yearning—both literally and figuratively—for a sense of salvation. This powerful exploration of human experience invites readers to reflect on the harsh realities faced by many, making it a must-read for poetry lovers and those seeking to understand the complexities of life in marginalized communities.
