"Boston forces us to make eye contact with alchemists, angels, ghosts, werewolves, demagogues, monsters, demons, spacers, robots, berserkers, their lovers, and their victims. Inventive, speculative to the point of skewering us with wonder, innovative, resonant with melody, this overview of Boston's work from the early 70s to the present dramatizes the development of one of America's most skilled and inspired poets." - Mary Turzillo, Lovers & Killers, Mars Girls, Elgin and Nebula Award Winner
"In these fleet, always musical poems, Boston spotlights not only infinite vistas of time and space but also the grottos of our most intransigent longings and fears. These same poems may move us to gasp or guffaw to the point of finding ourselves, to purloin a phrase of the poet's, 'polymorphously pleasure-spent.' Brief Encounters twinkles luminously and always delivers." - Michael Bishop, Nebula Award Winner, author of Other Arms Reach Out to Me: Georgia Stories
"With Brief Encounters, Boston manages an amazing feat: he not only knocks it out of the park, but also shows us he's been doing it for decades. A great read for anyone who enjoys seeing what wonders words can work...and who isn't afraid to step into the dark from time to time." - Michaelbrent Collings, multiple Bram Stoker Award Nominee and bestselling author of The Longest Con
