Reviews

"Derrick Brown doesn't just report from the human condition, he sings it-- capturing how it feels to be absolutely alive in poems that are simultaneously romantic, wacky, soulful, wounded and full of wonder. Don't browse-- dive in and swim all the way through these poems underwater on one great breath."--Janet Fitch, author of Paint It Black and White Oleander

"Derrick's poems, for me, are so generous. Generous in their wit and honesty, mesmerizing fragments of vivid memories. Like sitting next to the most fascinating drunk stranger and hearing his tales. All of them are happily part of my life now."--H. Jon Benjamin, Bob of Bob's Burgers, Archer of Archer, Jon of Jon Benjamin Has a Van

"In his rapturous new poetry collection, Hello. It Doesn't Matter., Derrick Brown confesses to every crime of the heart and somehow beats the rap. He does it with keen, unflinching lucidity and breathtaking art. He does it with jellyfish and oranges. He's guilty and charged as a lightning storm. If you've followed this poet, you'll find him at the height of his craft. If this is your first encounter, trust him. You're about to make a new old friend."--Brendan Constantine, author of Birthday Girl with Possum and Dementia, My Darling
