“The poems in Discovering Morality are all focused on the most significant subject any poet can engage with: down-to-earth, day-to-day lived human experiences. With crystal clear language and subtle craftsmanship, Lader dramatizes relationships and conflicts of childhood (including children who are psychologically and socially at risk), the nuclear family, marriage, sex, death, war, and social concerns. The poems are imbued with Lader’s reverence and unsentimental love for his subjects as well as the mystery of our interactions with the natural world.” (Gerald Barrax, Professor Emeritus of English at North Carolina State University)
