Praise for David Kirby "Kirby is exuberant, irrepressible, maniacal and remarkably entertaining…. Okay, let me just say it: he is a wonderful poet." – Steve Kowit, San Diego Union-Tribune"Kirby’s voice and matter (teaching, literature, traveling, rock ‘n’ roll, everyday bozohood) are utterly personal and, despite all the laughter, ultimately moving." – Ray Olson, Booklist"[Kirby] is a poet who peels away the layers of our skin to show us who we are: our weaknesses, our strengths, and our hilarious obsessions." – Micah Zevin, New Pages"The world that Kirby takes into his imagination and the one that arises from it merge to become a creation like no other, something like the world we inhabit but funnier and more full of wonder and terror." – Philip Levine, Ploughshares"These poems may be too cool for words." – Carol Muske-Dukes, New York Times Book Review Inspired by the carpenter’s biscuit joint – a seamless, undetectable fit between pieces of wood – David Kirby’s latest collection dramatizes the artistic mind as a hidden connection that links the mundane with the remarkable. Even in our most ordinary actions, Kirby shows, there lies a wealth of creative inspiration: "the poem that is written every day if we’re there / to read it."Well known for his garrulous and comic musings, Kirby follows a wandering yet calculated path. In "What’s the Plan, Artists?" a girl’s yawning in a picture gallery leads him to meditations on subjects as diverse as musical composition, the less-than-beautiful human figure, and "the simple pleasures / of living." The Biscuit Joint traverses seemingly random thoughts so methodically that the journey from beginning to end always proves satisfying and surprising.
