"A bemused, stoop-shouldered figure who is more than a mere speaker--let's call him a protagonist--stalks the poems of" Falling to Earth." With candor and an almost grandiose simplicity, Hansen describes the limitations of his middle-aged body and, in so doing, the limitations of his enterprise in mid-life: the gracelessness of survival." Falling to Earth "is the journey of a vibrant soul refreshing itself poem by poem."--Molly Peacock, from her foreword Tom Hansen taught writing and literature for 35 years before retiring to the Black Hills of South Dakota. His credits include "Paris Review," "The Iowa Review," and "The American Scholar."
The Emergency Press edition of this title (2013) was a Seattle Mystery Bookshop bestseller and called "a compelling, existential thrill ride" by Booklist. This Is What We Do is an insightfully written crime thriller exploring nihilism, revolutionaries, self-examination, hope and hopelessness. Tom Hansen is a favorite author in the Pacific Northwest, and the reissue of both American Junkie and now This is What We Do will break him out to larger audiences. Both the book and author have strong punk rock roots which can be leveraged for promotion and book tour.
