The Tavern of Lost Souls in Bloomington, MN

"When thunder becomes symbolic again, / then and only then we'll discover / the true nature of
existence." Not true. We know it right here in this book-this prism-this kaleidoscope of the soul
bursting with imagination. And the poet's everyday world is never lost, even while tethered
to high-flying multi-imaged phrases and clauses. Alan Britt's literary personality is here, precise in
every note. The poetic will of each line, urgency and flair, teaches us the game.
