Montana poet: Not only was Michael Earl Craig (Earl to friends) Poet Laureate of Montana from 2015-2017, he runs a full-time farrier practice in Shields Valley, near Livingston, Montana. Excellent reader: Craig is the best reader of his own work. Hilariously deadpan, his readings are legendary among poets who appreciate his wit. He enjoys giving readings in-person and he is thinking of touring with the book in 2023. “Cool” poet: While his work was included in the Poetry Society of America’s New American Poetry Series, he has built up a reputation as a “cool” poet because of his unusual humor and his farrier identity. Thus, he has garnered previous attention from html Giant, Granta, the Believer, and elsewhere. This book would be perfect for a shelf-talker, as it is very quotable, and it would be great on display with any work from James Tate, Werner Herzog, or Julio Cortázar, all of whom are big influences for Michael Earl Craig.
Michael Earl Craig is from Dayton, Ohio, home of the gas mask and the mood ring. He is the author of Woods and Clouds Interchangeable (Wave Books, 2019), Talkativeness (Wave Books, 2014), Thin Kimono (Wave Books, 2010), Yes, Master (Fence Books, 2006), Can You Relax in My House, (Fence Books, 2002), and the chapbook Jombang Jet (Factory Hollow Press, 2012). He lives in the Shields Valley, near Livingston, Montana, where he runs a full-time farrier practice. He was the 2015-2017 Poet Laureate of Montana.
