Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Scott Silsbe's Cosmic American Music is the kind of beautifully wistful, sometimes hilarious, and always gentle company you'd hope to find in a book if you were sleepless at 3am. A distinctively searching voice, riddled with musings on grief, music, poetry, bars, and the bewildering mysteries of being alive, Silsbe honors loved ones who make poignant and often comic appearances in these poems (and who knew the poet Jenny Ashburn was a ventriloquist ). I loved this book. Silsbe is more vulnerable as he hits middle age, and even funnier. And what's not to love in a writer who inspires us to hold our eyes wide open for both the beauty and everyday absurdities of life -Jane McCafferty, author of The Sea Lion Who Saved the Boy Who Jumped from the Golden GateI've been fortunate enough over the last several years to know Scott Silsbe and his intricate flowing river of words. And while, in the past, I've often found Silsbe's work to be almost as delicate as a tea cup in a steel mill-in the way Jim Daniels can be delicate, or perhaps Edward Field-I think that was just his way of trying to find parts of himself that he hadn't yet explored, it was the search to find his rougher edges. And in this most recent collection, Cosmic American Music, I truly believe Silsbe has come full circle and that he is now completely comfortable in his own skin-it is that ease that shines through like a Rust Belt ballet. So all I can say is, put away your fine china, because that's not the world most of us currently occupy. Least of all Silsbe. Things get messy here and, in my opinion, this book is Scott at his best. It is a fitting tribute to the grittiness of the streets of Pittsburgh that you can feel in your bones. The dirt under Silsbe's fingernails finally feels like his own, so just keep reading-I certainly intend to. And hopefully we can all come out a little cleaner on the other side.-John Dorsey, author of 100 MorningsAbout the AuthorScott Silsbe was born in Detroit. He now lives in Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania, where he works as a bookseller. His poems and prose have appeared in numerous magazines and have been collected in four previous books-Unattended Fire, The River Underneath the City, Muskrat Friday Dinner, and Meet Me Where We Survive. Silsbe is also the editor of Low Ghost Press. …

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'Scott Silsbe is one of my favorite working poets. The bulk of his poems are born of personal and intimate moments, yet Silsbe's precise and conversational language invites us in, makes us feel welcome, and the joys and sorrows found here become our own. Each piece quietly shines with a love for literature, music, friendship, for life itself. Reading Scott's poems feels like having him tell you stories over numerous beers throughout the wee hours. Stories sad, funny, and engagingly human; stories you'll remember in the morning.' -William Taylor Jr., author of Pretty Things to Say'I've been sitting here for a while trying to write about Scott Silsbe's new book, Meet Me Where We Survive. I try phrases like 'fiercely human' and 'ripe with intimate treasures,' but realize that's not close to getting to it, and everything I try sounds trite and lazy. So here's the truth about this dazzling book: it made me want to write. Four poems came from my reading this. Blame Scott for that if you like, but do not ignore this book. It's fabulous, and really is fiercely human and ripe with intimate treasures, as you'll soon see for yourself.' -Jeff Weddle, author of Advice for Cannibals¿'Scott Silsbe is a master at creating interesting and thought-provoking poems out of events that have occurred in his life. His friends and acquaintances become your friends and acquaintances through his poems. He has the innate ability to make a reader understand and feel like they were there for the discussion, the reading, the party, the rock show, the whatever was going on. This collection, Meet Me Where We Survive, is a treasure chest of these experiences-it is a pirate's booty. -Joseph Shields, Nerve Cowboy Magazine.…
