Weathered Man is a collection of accessible and clean poetry rich in depth and layered meaning. Easy to read and deceptively simple, Weathered Man is a six-month journey of one grandfather maintaining focus on the small things in the face of thunderclouds in the personal lives of those around him. Alan Basting gives his reader an option to read his poetry at a simple and very calming level, or to take a ride with him into the challenges of life portended in even the most basic things, like the weather of the day.
-Bruce Metge, co-author, White Fence: an Ekphrastic Collaboration Across 10 Images
The poems in Weathered Man have that remarkable poetic gift for bringing the unseen to light, like those no-see-ums on a sultry August day, perceivable only by their irritating effects on the body. His daily reflections make us sit up, look around, scratch our heads, perhaps, and take notice of the clouds, birds, insects, children, and friends, who share sacred space with us under the sun and sky of each amazing day.
-Marilyn Hedgpeth, author of The Lightness of Reprieve
