Small Corner of the Stars is Paul Stroble’s third Finishing Line chapbook, all sharing a fictional geography of remembered Midwest times and places. Stroble weaves images of history, railroads, highways, farms, and the eponymous river to celebrate both history and the natural world. A reviewer of Small Corner writes, This poetry is richly populated and sweet without being the least bit sentimental or cloying….You want to know the people in these poems; thanks to Stroble’s marvelous language, you have no choice but to love them. Another reviewer writes, Paul Stroble’s chapbook Small Corner of the Stars begins with an exploration of faith and its complexities, then accompanies the reader on a journey though time to examine the terrain of memory, and the everyday places where heart and mind meet.
