Easy Listening by Tim Krcmarik is a book of vibrant, funny and moving poems. Marvin Bell has said of Krcmarik's poetry: "If these poems don't engage you, close the coffin-you've passed. They stay fresh: robust language, a sensory knowledge of the world, and a mind by turns realistic and romantic. Tim Krcmarik's labors as a professional fireman must have something to do with it. His poems rescue experience. Go see for yourself."
