Synopsis

“Rasnic takes us on a word trip across his America, shifting gears without ever touching the clutch. In Puppet, Rasnic paints America using word strokes that sometimes blur the lines. Don't be surprised if you see a piece of your past looking back at you.”
~Scot Young, Rusty Truck
“Ben Rasnic is a traveler. From the moonlit landscapes of the American west to inner city streets, he’s seen a lot of the country. He has a photographer’s eye for the scene and matches that with the sure voice of an Appalachian story teller. He takes names and knows the score.”
~ Russell Streur, Proprietor & Editor of The Camel Saloon
