Advance Praise for In the Cooling Twilight, a memoir in essays "Ed Meek has provided readers with a rich compendium of insightful, intimate, and evocative essays in his latest book, In the Cooling Twilight. I've known Meek as a marvelous short story writer so this is an unexpected and welcome turn on his ongoing literary journey. Luck was one of favorite fiction collections, and this newest outing confirms his protean ability to work exceptionally in any genre." -Michael C. Keith, author of Insomnia 11 and Methods of Repair "With the precision of a poet and the compassion of a memoirist, Ed Meek illuminates the quiet dramas of ordinary life. In the Cooling Twilight traces the arc of a life-from boyhood skirmishes in schoolyards to the fragile intimacies of fatherhood, from idealism kindled in the tumult of the '60s to the small, luminous rituals of middle age. With wry humor Meek explores the tender intersections of memory, identity, and time." -Steve Glines, writer and publisher, author of Poplar Hill
