about this author
Author of the poetry collections Rules for Drinking Forties (Cy Press, 2009), Musee Mechanique (BlazeVOX, 2006) and Rouge State (Pavement Saw, 2003). Once wrote an expensive study of I.A. Richards in China. I live in Portland, OR where I help curate The Tangent Reading Series with Kaia Sand and Jules Boykoff. [www.thetangentpress.org/readings.html]
I think it's awful to have to rate books among friends on a point 'n' click five-star system, so I give everything a five, but also a "review."

If you haven't spent time inside the structured intensities of Brandon Downing's incomparable film collages, do yourself a favor this Fourth and see how much America has to be thankful for. Start with "The Ship (I)" and cruise into the sun from there.
