"A pocketbook of wry" is a third collection of poems from prolific poet/writer B. Germain. This set of 77 poems written under mostly pandemic protocol represents exploration both away from and back to rhyme - in new forms and cryptic styles. The themes of the book center always on purpose, praise and living out the philosophies of our personal preferences - as B. Germain interrogates in almost every poem - the who, whom, what, which, why, when, where and how of a purposeful life.
