Inhaltsangabe
“Tim Nolan’s voice is funny and serious at once, sly and direct, wry and heartfelt...Anybody who can turn a poem called ‘Brussels Sprouts’ into a psalm to the strange and compelling beauties of family, mortality, and sea salt is not to be missed.” —Jim Moore
"The familiar streets and landmarks throughout Tim Nolan's The Sound of It will resonate with Minneapolis natives, and even some New Yorkers. The sounds of Nolan's poems cover a full octave—from childhood to "Almost Fifty," Diamond Lake Road to Palestine, brussels sprouts to Holy Thursday. Nolan harmonizes the ordinary morsels of life with the profound in such a way as to awaken the reader to a conscious living in the moment. He focuses on past and future as inseparably flowing elements of the present. Within this overture of poems, "the voice you hear is generous and expansive like Whitman's, at home in the 'easy suit' of the body and yet always surprised to be part of the here and now" (Joyce Sutphen). Nolan's voice embodies his longing to offer "something lasting that might be repeated and would carry a life of its own."—Minnesota Literature
From Almost Fifty:
These years don’t mean as much as we think—
they are merely markers for memories—milestones—
or millstones and the effect of the birthday
is always the same—here I go—or I must be
in the deep end of the pool.
Tim Nolan is an attorney in Minneapolis.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. New Rivers Press. Moorhead, MN. Clean text, tight binding. NOT ex-library, belonged to James Naiden. A prolific writer, poet, literary critic, and editor, Jim Naiden was a seminal figure on the Twin Cities literary scene. He helped to shape the early poetry 'scene' in Minnesota and beyond, through his literary journal The North Stone Review (1972-2002) and a seminal series of poetry readings in the 80's featuring Robert Bly, Louis Jenkins, Phebe Hanson, and many other Minnesota poets who would make their mark. His literary reviews were published locally and in journals across the country, and also the Paris Review. His style was discriminating, sometimes cutting, and generous. Naiden has notes on the poems on the inside back cover. His reviews of the book and other documents that Naiden had are included with the book. Exterior looks great.
