Adventures While Preaching the Gospel of Beauty

Adventures While Preaching the Gospel of Beauty

By Joshua Beckman and Matthew Rohrer

  • After their Fall 2002 whirlwind tour supporting their book of collaborative poems, Nice Hat. Thanks., acclaimed poets Joshua Beckman and Matthew Rohrer return with a collection of their finest new poems recorded live as they rambled high and low. These poems, created in furious improvisational badinage and contemplative rumination, cover such topics as hillbillies, baseball, capitalism, paradise, fruit, spy satellites, and the trials and tribulations of the American Automobile. The result is an uproarious and continually surprising audio record of two vivid imaginations working overtime in no less than 19 states.

  • Beckman and Rohrer are both fine poets in their own right. They share a joyful earnestness, and aliveness to sensation, a geeky enthusiasm about the physical and emotional world. On Adventures, we can hear them piecing together their mutual thoughts; at times, the nervousness palpable in their humble, determined voices is touching.
