Vanished civilizations, unidentified flying objects, giant people,
strange sea creatures, alien visitations, enigmatic ancient
artifacts. . . Government conspiracies, media fraudsters, mass
hysteria, genuine believers. . . Welcome to the weird and wonderful
world of Matt Bialer. A fascination with the strange, the
unexplained and the downright weird manifests itself hypnotically
in this selection of long poems that address our hopes, our
misconceptions and our fears about things we just do not
understand. These poems read like fast paced stories, never fail to
draw the reader in and, above all, entertain.
"These poems are the epic celebration of Americana at its weirdest,
an elegy to the beauty of its deeply twisted and beautiful soul.
Amazing."
Seb Doubinsky
