2007 Nebraska Book Award "Matt Mason must be declared the Poet Laureate of the Midwest No other native son celebrates the overlooked America, its unsung citizens (from the anonymous poets to the part-time English teachers), and its expansive indigenous landscape as well as he does. Mason's poetry is humorous when he wants to be quirky, heartbreaking when he wants to be eloquent, and though he moves effortlessly into other moods and geographies, he always returns to his first and most enduring love (and to what he knows best)--his homeland."--Rigoberto Gonz lez, Director, National Book Critics Circle
