New from Candy Moulton RED SHUTTLEWORTH AVAILABLE APRIL 2019 Homeward PRE-ORDER AT OUPRESS.COM Blue Horse Press Trade paperback, 64 pages, $12 BlueHorsePress.com Red Shuttleworth’s slim volume of poems ranges from haiku-like verse to longer monologues and plays from his 20th Century playwriting project. A neologist, he makes his meanings clear with imaginative hyphenated words like “eye-pop-eager,” “rocket-punched sky” and “dizzy-dance.” By and large, his work is populated with the commonplace. In one poem he enters the Stockman’s Cafe and finds “A platoon of old guys sits the cafe counter…” and in another piece in Quartzburg, Idaho, he finds “A deadfall bar, saw- dust floor, pine planks across greasy, grimy wood barrels.” No stranger to such environments, I found myself in many of his poems and thoroughly enjoyed it. This book gives Shuttleworth, an award-winning poet, a leg up on future recognition. – Lynn Bueling BOOK NOTES JOHNNY D.
