Long one of the finest writers at work in Seattle—one whose poetry, fiction, and essays are finally becoming more widely known—John Olson is here tonight with a new book of prose poems, Larynx Galaxy (Black Widow Press). "John Olson is afraid of no word or trope of words, and especially not of tropes of ideas looming into and out of one another. And no emotion or boundary compounding of emotions is beyond likelihood in the presence of his surging perceptions as they float in inspiration. Larynx Galaxy is also a syrinx galaxy playing on the panpipes of imagination." - Michael McClure.
