About this title

Review:

The poems in Jason Bredle's first full-length collection, Standing in Line for the Beast, spill off the page like a whole closetful of Ray Kroc Youth Achievement Awards a thousand individual moments so strangely and vividly crystallized you want to hold onto them forever....Each abandoned beginning, each snipped thread of thought, carries the tantalizing hint of a good story behind it. But the hint is almost as good as the story itself, in the same way that a random Polaroid discovered on the sidewalk and sent to FOUND Magazine invites us to invent a much stranger explanation than we'd ever imagine if we were there when the picture was taken. --Diagram"
