Praise for OxyContin for Breakfast

MARTHA COLLINS

“In this rich book of poems, Kurt Eidsvig covers a lot of territory. From Boston to Montana, and many states between, it's a book of Americana. From OxyContin and alcohol to Rothko and other artists, it's an implicit conversation between experience and art, with a painterly sense of color, shape, and line informing its pages. From conversational narrative to nonlinear association, from syntactic extension to clipped repetition, Eidsvig invites us to listen and travel with him. It's a journey you'll want to take slowly, and then to take again.”
