The title of Anthony Chase's collection, Hut, refers to a literal place where the poet lived for 14 years, and also to a state of mind.

People ask me: "What the hell are you doing, living in a hut?"

These poems form a narrative sequence, and are concerned with an inner pilgrimage, and a fresh embrace of the world outside the hut,

Suddenly, not two feet from my knees in their

green overalls: a hawk dive bombs the little clearing

and as the narrative progresses, it becomes a record of some of Chase's travels as a climber and travel writer.

It was like sleeping in an IMAX film of the Cosmos. The sky at altitude was immense and magnified. Comets fell past, and as they passed

me on the mountain, they seemed to continue straight down. The balls of light were falling through black air.

Hut, Chase's first collection, is a quiet book whose poems mingle with observation, the routines of life lived, and the acknowledgment of ideas and stimuli that find their way into the work. These are also exemplified by his drawings, which are the simple objects of daily experience. Here is a work of extraordinary sweep that introduces the poet to a wider audience with sensitivity, humor, and linguistic innovation.
