Book Overview

I know I'm holding a good book in my hand when I use the other to call my friends and read poems to them. How generous John Repp is He zooms in on the moment, but he�s always glancing at everything that surrounds it. His funny poems have dark hearts, just as the sad ones are clearly written by someone capable of belly-shaking laughter. They tell wonderful stories, yet they contain chewy little nuggets that are often indifferent and even hostile to story. I�ve said elsewhere that a poem either writes you a check or sends you a bill, and Fat Jersey Blues writes me checks faster than I can cash them. Oh, and these poems make me do something else that the good ones always do: when I hung up after reading �Bob Johnson� or �The Maltese Falcon� or �Balcony� to a friend, I sat down to write myself. �David Kirby, author of The Biscuit Joint
