1) Paperback Book Big Back Yard (A. Poulin, Jr. New Poets of America) by BOA Editions Ltd.. I really love this book. The poems are incredible--beautiful, surprising, exciting, funny, tender.¤

2) Paperback Book Big Back Yard (A. Poulin, Jr. New Poets of America) by BOA Editions Ltd.. Wow. This book is clear, strange, beautiful and true. The poems keep veering towards some kind of familiar place, then shying away just in time to leave a vacuum and draw us into a land or dream or something scape where we can feel some feelings we have always somehow known we have. This book comes along quietly and just makes an amazing place to be, which is something so many books of poems (that seem to be so much more about admiring what the poet has read, can do, knows, has experienced, etc.) don´t do nowadays. I couldn´t be more sure that you will love this book.¤

Teig´s poems display his ability to -create surprising metaphors and images. These are integrated seamlessly into startlingly original poems, which, though often difficult, aren´t inaccessible. "With Teig I could never calculate the poem´s direction," Stephen Dobyns writes in his Foreword. "Yet where the poem wound up . . . felt exactly right, while the ride itself, the reading experience, gave great pleasure."

Michael Teig earned his MFA in creative writing from the University of Massachusetts, where he studied with Dara Wier and the late Agha Shahid Ali. He founded the literary magazine Jubilat, which operates out of the UMass campus. Currently, he lives in Northampton, Massachusetts, where he works as a freelance writer and editor while continuing to run Jubilat.
