“Brehm’s poems are sexy, funny, often brilliantly crafted, and wonderfully sweet at their core.”—David Daniel,Ploughshares“Reading John Brehm, it is difficult not to be charmed by his voice and glittering wit. . . . Brehm is the poet-friend you’ve always wanted. . . . a plain-speaking raconteur—delightfully hyperbolic, ironic, and comically self-deprecating.”—Mike Wilmot,Prairie Schooner“These poems are ecstatic songs, human tunes, being sung in a tone of honesty that makes you want to sing yourself.”—Tin House
