THE VISIT, A Red Shuttleworth Chapbook

The Visit

a prose poem chapbook

Red Shuttleworth

The Visit is a prose poem adapted from Red Shuttleworth's in-progress Hawk Season Notebook #95.  It is published as a limited edition chapbook by Bunchgrass Press.

In 1950, Red's maternal grandfather, Serge Odnovalenko, brought him along on a visit to a man who had been a colonel in the White Army in Russia after the Revolution.  That long ago San Francisco morning, as reflected by dreams and flawed memory, is the basis for the prose poem / short-short story contained in the chapbook, The Visit. 

Serge Odnovalenko

1901-1992
