"THE HEART HAS A HOMELY FACE is a book of introspective poetry composed on ordinary themes that come through a Taoist perspective. Anderson's poetry rests on a point of inner balance upon common experiences. He brings forth the insights that most people can relate to concerning their connection with all things living. Anderson asks in his work, ""What has my life as a poet meant but to tighten the string that ties us all together?"" As a philosophical Taoist Anderson tries to weigh all of his subjects with an equal objectivity that evokes empathy and compassion from within one's self, and connects with all humankind."

"James Victor Anderson has written and published under previous book titles as Not Unlike a Madman in Cheap Sandals, Dance Without a Rack of Bones Within, Occasional Damage of Roses, and Immersion Into Quantum Creek. His current work is a continuation of the Taoist perspective through which the common human experience becomes extraordinary. If we demanded God to reveal himself the very best, what he might do is tell us to look into water and see what it means. In our own reflection we cannot enter or grasp him at all by means of our intellectual illusions or even faith that water can hold us up. When a Taoist says ""There is no God where there is only God"" he is insubordinate to all schools of thought, East or West, which try to put the highest deity in an observable container or dismiss it as an irrelevant anachronism."
