註釋

Poetry. "Nate Slawson's debut collection, PANIC ATTACK, USA, is a brass-knuckled love letter to a lost world. Meet the Cerberus of Slawson's vision: spinal cords & grizzly bears, lost cities & body bags, bloodstains of dreams & birthday parties, yellowjackets & rattlesnakes, vampires & movie theaters, amens & fuck-offs, Heather Locklear & Superchunk, unidentifiable bodies of moonlight, midwestern topography & tommy guns, teeth & knee-caps, belt buckles & wanderlust. And there is more & more in the fine carousel of his brilliant wit & tenderness. Finally, a voice emerges to translate the wildfire of loneliness and memory. Each of these poems is a muscle--reflexive & close to the bone where America waits to be broken & re-cast. I trust Nate Slawson's poems to name lightning."--Rachel Eliza Griffiths

"Thank the poetry gods that there is someone like Nate Slawson in this otherwise neutered world. Thank the poetry gods that Nate Slawson writes with a hard-on. When I picture in my head what the speakers in these poems look like, this is what I come up with: a man naked on a pogo stick hopping down the street. This is a man, in other words, who lets everything hang out. This is a man who is not afraid or ashamed to tell it like is. Christ if I don't wish there were more people like this, and especially more poets like this."--from the foreword by Peter Markus
