50 Barn Poems
Consisting of fifty barn poems, 50 Barn Poems is an evocative yet accessible sketch of that old barn that haunts the back of your brain. Vague memories of road trips, skateboarding, the ocean, and ping-pong are all reconstructed in the shape of a barn and set on fire. We're not even sure they're poems. Maybe they are just: BARN. Go ahead, take off your shoes and drive off a cliff. The barn awaits.
"I haven't read this book yet, but the clarity and candor implied in the title alone make me think it could be the greatest-ever book of poems about barns."
- Dave Eggers, author of The Captain and the Glory
"A fun exploration of the power of arbitrary constraints, with Brautiganesque, perverse humor. I now know as little about barns as I did before."
- Stephin Merrit of The Magnetic Fields
"50 Barn Poems seems like it's making fun of barns, or poems, or poets, or books. I like that about it."
- Elizabeth Ellen, author of Elizabeth Ellen and Person/a
"These poems fall across America with their heavy beams and flaking paint. Zac Smith has captured absurdity with empathy and humour in a collection that feels wholly contemporary."
- Giacomo Pope, founder of Neutral Spaces and author of 50 Barn Blurbs
