Reel to Real

A gift for narrative and an ear so fine-tuned to the deep resonances of the past that the poignancy can be painful.Shades of James Dickey and David Bottoms, but the voice belongs to Jenkins.

—Michael Hanson, author of I Am A Prayer

Opens windows into our shared experience.From movies, to the desire for our words to be remembered, to bargaining with years to keep dogs alive, he takes us to places we all recognize.

—Jeff Price, author of A World So Filled

Combines aching nostalgia and keen observation with the ability to find truth and beauty in everyday life.

—Joel Lee, author of The Endless City
