In this new collection of poems, Glenn Lyvers once again displays his impressive poetic range. He digs deeply into the icons of an ever-shifting world. He throws this world at us all, in ways that are both surprising and heartfelt. Faith, parenthood, identity and a slew of objects form the backdrop of a world rich in storytelling and abstraction. Glenn Lyvers seasons this world with people and animals. The result is nothing short of beautiful. Burnt Umber is the single greatest poetic achievement I have had the pleasure to read.  – Anthony Shields (MLM) Lyvers has taken everyday farmhouse table-talk and bedside lure and orchestrated it into a passionate collection of intriguing poetry -- a solid example of culture in the American heartland. Steven P. Servis www.stevenservis.com At his best, Lyvers uses the luminous detail method, like film stills, with images of hunting, fishing, insects, cows, and the fertile sprawl of the natural world. Good poetry resonates beyond itself.  – Judy Swann Glenn Lyvers is the recipient of two pushcart prize nominations, Best Poet (2009) MLM and his work appears in dozens of journals and literary magazines annually.  Burnt Umber is the second full collection of poetry by Glenn Lyvers. It follows Lyvers' Midwest Collection, by Poetry Quarterly. Glenn Lyvers is quickly ascending the ladder of emerging contemporary poets, and Burnt Umber is a "must have" in any collection of serious poetry today.
