Bøker av Bud Backen

Long overdue, Bud Backen's The Paul Bunyan Ballroom is, by its very nature, as BIG as a ballroom. It feels as if one's mind is dancing the tango or an old French waltz, reading/hearing these poems. His careful use of language & line-breaks & an internal rhyme & rhythm create a pronounced musicality inside the inside (etymology: mythology) of this book, with subtle humor, comic/tragic situational realities, with surprising, honest imagery, & a down-to-earth perspective (which may be extraterrestrial). -- Ron Androla, author of Confluence
