These lyric poems are suspended on the cycle of daylight, of seasons, of entangling generations. Keenly observant, of themselves and their surroundings, Stuecker's speakers pulse with yearning, proving that the passage of years only fortifies the seeking spirit. Readers of The Uncertainty Principle surely will be left longing to enter into the sacred blue light.

Julie Hensley, author of Viable: Poems

These are wise and deeply insightful poems, full of rich and vigorous music. They are vividly rendered, carefully textured, economically structured. A rare spirit is at work here. Mr. Stuecker has much to teach us, and his poems are a quiet revelation. I return to this collection with great pleasure, as I read it again and again.

Young Smith, author, In a City You Will Never Know

The Uncertainty Principle delights in the immediacy of the transient and the temporal, where Stuecker offers more questions than answers with wisdom garnered from a lifetime of experience. His lyrics glimmer in the shadow of an aging sometimes swiped aside for yellow buds filling the glass panes, dogwoods that draw the eye skyward. This aging, though, still retains Stuecker's deliberate focus, a beast he stares down in the dark, where vivacity can all too easily slip out and away.

B. J. Wilson, author of Tuckasee

In The Uncertainty Principle, Richard Stuecker explores illness and aging, beauty, and pain with a writer's curiosity in poems that surprise and delight. He takes us as close as his bedroom and as far away as Lisbon while reminding us, we always turn toward where we came from.

Ellen Birkett Morris, author of Lost Girls and Surrender
