Welcome to the world of Jason Ryberg--a world of true crimes and misdemeanors in the American grain, transformed, through the poet's retelling, into miniature works of art.
Rattlesnake tough but also tender-hearted. -Kevin Rabas, Poet Laureate of Kansas (2017-2019)
Reading Ryberg is like driving a pick-up truck across Kansas on shrooms, and his imagery, as fresh as a midnight S curve, takes the reader on a journey from city streets to wheat fields, navigating through a landscape bright with the five-battery-flashlight of a moon. A Secret History of the Nighttime World, the twelfth book of poetry by Ryberg, delivers one great breath of fire directly from his heart onto the page.
