Poetry. When I first read Kinnell and Rich and Snyder as a much younger man I took from each a certain poignant and charged satisfaction, the sense of having come home to a life not mine. Here in this powerful, humane and steady book, I find it again and I am grateful beyond measure.--Theo Dorgan
Whimsical and wry, self-deprecating and humane, Tim Nolan pinpoints what it means to be human. THE FIELD is an extraordinary read.--Katrina Vandenberg
Rumi wrote, 'Out beyond ideas of right doing and wrong doing there is a field... When the soul lies down in that grass... even the phrase 'each other' doesn't make sense anymore.' Tim Nolan digs in that field, unearthing one gob-smacking treasure after another. Lie down in that grass. Meet him there.--Eric Utne
In these lean, direct poems Tim Nolan seeks candidly and humbly for a true sense of self and a solid place to stand in this busy, often superficial, detail-laden, rushing world, where we are 'going nowhere at great speed.' He revels in memories of a Boston hotel, a café, the whistle of a man who wants to be a bird, and, most movingly, the songs of his marriage bed and his dying mother, as well as the music of his own voice, full of love and grief.--Freya Manfred
