David Moreau is poet; a long term front line care worker; a remarkable human being.
His poems explore the delight, humor, bureaucratic absurdity, and human frailty that humans face as we struggle to care for one another with dignity and sensitivity. These poems are truly about 'human' service, from the inside out. Provoking thoughts; deep insights; truth.
Book reviews:
David Moreau is relief at last from the suffocating
insincerity of the caring industry. Working gently, he
teases the delightful truth from behind charity’s facade.
–Lucy Gwin
David Moreau benefits all of us by telling the world
what he knows about the true costs of caring for each
other. These acute observations offer insight into the
world created by those who spend their work lives
with people with developmental disabilities in day
programs and group homes. With honesty and humor
that express a struggle for compassion and a longing
for even more meaning in the lives that concern him,
his poems capture both the pressures that make the
work mindlessly routine and moments of transcendence,
only visible close-up to a discerning eye.
–John O’Brien
