Poetry. "Camp is a master of turning the clloquial idiom into whimsical sardonic humor"—Library Journal. "Camp comes off as a kind of modem day, tongue-in-cheeck Shakespeare. And that, though hardly carnal, is refreshing"—Raymond DiZazzo. "Camp's first full-length solo collection is a welcome and well-made addition to Burning Deck's amazing list. The poems and songs are lively and very often funny, but not always as light as might appear on the surface.... There is an obvious command of the traditions he employs, allowing him to turn lament into satire"—Bruce McPherson.

Poetry. Limited edition from Burning Deck Fiction, signed by the author. Among Library Journal's best titles of 1978 and 1979, THE CAPTURE OF TRIESTE is a rabbit hole of language and hilarity. Recipient of an NEA fellowship in fiction, author Tom Ahern gallops through bedroom and boulevard with razor wit. "Because the language cuts so quickly, there is a dream quality among the words"--Alan Davies, NORTHEAST RISING SUN.
