Author Description

Product Description Completed in six months, on the eve of the poet's twenty-ninth birthday, Accidental Monsters was Eric Basso's first collection of poems. The author carries us through a world where landscapes and interiors merge, a terrain vague of fleeting visions, gnomic adventures, enigmas, grotesque creatures and bizarre mechanisms. We eventually journey to an unnamed planet, and are witness to several sinister tableaux. This is a poetry of convergences, set in the time-warp which traps that disquieting moment between the dream and the awakening. From the Back Cover About the Author Eric Basso is a native of Baltimore whose fiction, poetry, drama and essays have appeared in the Chicago Review, Fiction International, Central Park, Collages & Bricolages, Exquisite Corpse, and elsewhere. He resides in Randallstown, MD.
