In his new book of poems, The Grind, Michael
Cirelli delivers a meditative homage to family, food, and hard work in an
impressive poetic format. His narratives delve deeply and emotionally into this
uniquely American restaurant institution with sometimes surprising results. Most
of the poems in this collection are set in or revolve around Cirelli’s family’s
actual diner, called J.P. Spoonem’s, located, and apparently still operating,
in Providence Rhode Island. For more of my review go here:
