"A minimalist, a folk singer and a comic walk into a bar....and they all find comfort, like I do, in the poems of Brian Beatty." - Alec Soth, Photographer "Beatty's kind and authentic, honest voice faces my own uncomfortable truths head-on. And in this sometimes hopeless world he proves to me he still knows how to cope." - M Sarki, Author of Zimble Zamble Zumble and Mewl House "Whenever I finish one of Beatty's poems, I always ask myself, 'How in the hell does he keep delivering such humanity, poignancy, wisdom and wit in only a few short lines?' My guess is that he takes a lot of poet steroids." - John Jodzio, Author of Knockout "Beatty the stand-up comic and musician appears in some of these poems, addressing the world from those singular angles. But in those perhaps most moving, he joins the American tradition of John Haines, Morton Marcus, Robert Bly: the individual nakedly confronting the natural world." - Cooper Renner, Author of Mosefolket
