The Last Vestige of Old Pittsburgh rekindles the age-old fire that burns inside the beautifully imperfect souls who suffer hard labor and hard love. In his ninth poetry collection, Ron Gavalik excavates long-forgotten soot from underneath sidewalks and uses those remains as ink to illustrate the struggles of this modern life. On this never-ending quest for survival, the reader must traverse over many rocky hillsides. Together, we will inhale uncomfortable truths and then exhale the wisdom of solidarity. Only with a well-earned fortitude of the spirit can one dream deeper, fight longer, and cast off the heavy burdens that shroud lesser souls.
“In these pages, Gavalik portrays a deep commitment to our city. He pulls beauty from bricks and paints vistas from atop concrete staircases.”
–Lori Beth Jones, Program Director, Pittsburgh Poetry Collective
