Falck is a deadpan Nostradamus, dispensing fast-hitting predictions and sour flashes of the past. 'Teenagers can't get drunk \/ fast enough is what you think of \/ when you think of home.' These poems are fraught machines that crack and fizzle, that think deeply and resist the low ground, that come from a place of uncanny wildness and heft.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e--Natalie Shapero, author of \u003cem\u003eHard Child\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The poems in Noah Falck's \u003cem\u003eExclusions\u003c\/em\u003e conjure worlds in which \u003cstrong\u003ewhat's missing shows us what matters most\u003c\/strong\u003e. Their generous whimsy and poignant metamorphoses are flinty and tender; this is poetry of radiant aftermath and post-industrial magic, of the conversation that remains after 'all your lines have been cut \/ and I don't have a mouth.' Falck invites us to see with more feeling, to grin with more bearing, to care like it can change us. 'The heart is the most donated organ, ' he writes; in this book of absences, the heart is never missing.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e--Zach Savich, author of \u003cem\u003eDiving Makes The Water Deep\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"\u003cem\u003eExclusions\u003c\/em\u003e keeps us off balance, stumbling forward, and \u003cstrong\u003eabsolutely alive\u003c\/strong\u003e with both the inventive possibilities of lyric poetry and that rare experience of watching the genre redefine itself in a pair of this art's most capable hands.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e--Michael McGriff, author of \u003cem\u003eHome Burial\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Falck's gloom's a playful one, and his \u003cem\u003eExclusions\u003c\/em\u003e creep into and around our midst in order to \u003cstrong\u003eask a little something of us\u003c\/strong\u003e.
