From the inner workings of 4-H clubs raising prize-winning nuns to the trials and tribulations of dating (and breaking up with) Death and Nature, to the insistence of cattle demanding to learn Kung Fu and people falling asleep during poetry readings, you will leave this book cleansed of your illusions, dazzled by hypnotic story-telling, and filled with a sense of wonder that lasts and lasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRecipient of a Wallace Stegner and NEA Creative Writing Fellowship, Hugh Behm-Steinberg is the author of two collections of poetry, \u003ci\u003eShy Green Fields\u003c\/i\u003e (No Tell Books) and \u003ci\u003eThe Opposite of Work\u003c\/i\u003e (JackLeg Press; 2nd edition by Doubleback Books) as well as three Dusie Kollektiv chapbooks: \u003ci\u003eSorcery, Good Morning!\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Sound of Music\u003c\/i\u003e.
