Synopsis
2012 Poetry Midwest Booksellers Choice Award winner
"[Todd Boss] can make any rhyme feel like a concealed weapon." ―Sherman Alexie
from “Overtures on an Overturned Piano”
. . . our hi-beams
played
across the gleaming bed
of snowdrifted bramble
where it lay,
moaning chaotically . . .

Review
“Boss’ poems generate their own rambunctious music and remind us ‘yes, / miracles happen.’” — Minneapolis Star Tribune
“The poems ring clearly; ‘pitch,’ they recall, is a way to fall as well as a way to sing.” — Cleveland Plain Dealer
“Boss flawlessly employs subtle music.” — Christian Science Monitor
“This is poetic form within and without that makes a true energy.” — Washington Independent Review
