Official synopsis Publisher
“Dust Storms May Exist follows the trajectory of a 10,000-mile road trip Groner took with a friend, exploring the geography, music, and history of America while mapping its astonishments and disillusionments. Along the way, he searches for a dead father, wrestles with belief and doubt, yearns for sensuality, recalls the loneliness of traveling in South America. Bluegrass and cowboy songs seep across the pages as they move through canyons, bayous, cornfields, museums, gas stations, dance halls, and memory’s refracting landscapes. These poems are a reckoning with what his country is and could be, a meditation on the palpability of absence, a discovery of the searing border between friendship and love, a realization that longing revolves at all experience’s core”–
