"Noah Burton's poems are intimate and electric, familiar and entirely original at once.Clothesline Saga is a love song for the American condition, one that "smolders on the hot plate between church's chicken and home." Full of associative high jinks and lyrical brilliance that hits you in the gut, these poems stare wide-eyed and open-hearted at our contemporary world, offering a soundtrack that rings in your ears long after the book is closed. A wild and beautiful ride." Kai Carlson-Wee, author of Rail (BOA Editions Ltd.)
