Reseña del libro "wisdom & dust"
Neil McCrea is a poet and author living in the Pacific Northwest. His work has most recently appeared in "Knock, Etc: a Review of General Semantics," and in the NeoPoiesis anthology "Candy. Wisdom & Dust" is his first poetry collection. Reviews Like water into wine, McCrea consistently and effortlessly transforms the quotidian into the revelatory. Wisdom & Dust dazzles and surprises with its pathos, wit, and insight. - Jonathan Evison, author of "All About Lulu" and "West of Here" The impressive poems in "Wisdom & Dust" have the swagger and pulse of the authentic. McCrea's characters, filled with equal parts rage and longing, bravado and despair, live in a universe where sucker punches and life-changing epiphanies wait at every turn. - James P. Othmer, author of "The Futurist "and "Holy Water" Vivid and revealing, Neil McCrea's "Wisdom & Dust" tells stories of lust, love, lawlessness, and root beer. The powerful but dark outlook reminds one of Salinger's "Catcher in the Rye," but with a sexual twist. - Alyse Black International Award-Winning Touring & Recording Artist Following Neil McCrea's optimistic and innocent boy into manhood left me feeling like I'd committed some sort of new sin myself, like I was partly responsible for his descent into all of this cool, blue madness. - Jeannette Kantzalis, songwriter/novelist
