The rooms of the house may be odd, and the stairwells may lead in strange directions, but you, as the reader, remain beckoned.Olzmann] hasn't invited you in just to leave you. He's got stories to tell, and they're good.- -- The Huffington Post Blog There is no place Matthew Olzmann doesn't visit in his poignant debut. From underwater to outer space, Mezzanines is a contained universe, constantly shifting through multiple perceptions of the surreal and the real. A lyrical conversation with mortality, Olzmann explores identity, faith, and our sense of place, with an acute awareness of our minute existence. From -NASA Video Transmission Picked Up By Baby Monitor-: How many shadows are there left to name? Logophobia is the fear of words. Keraunothnetophobia is the fear of falling man-made satellites. Imagine this last one: you walk outside and look to heaven expecting a sky lab plunging down on you--wires everywhere, bolts loosening, metal body in flames. Instead, you see only blue, endless blue, the color of a baby's new blanket, cloaking everything. Matthew Olzmann is a graduate of the MFA program for writers at Warren Wilson College. His poems have appeared or are forthcoming in Kenyon Review , New England Review , Inch , Gulf Coast , Rattle , and elsewhere. He's received fellowships from Kundiman and the Kresge Arts Foundation.
