"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.
