Person
Jim Reese is a graduate student in the PhD program in Creative Writing at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where he is studying intensively with the novelist Jonis Agee. These Trespasses is his second full-length book of poetry, his first being Wedding Cake and Funeral Ham from Grizzly Press. Writing about his first book Jonis Agee says "Jim Reese comes out of the chute riding hard. This new collection is a wild romp across the hard-scrabble plains of contemporary poetry. Let 'im buck!" Raymond Hammond, Editor-in-Chief of the New York Quarterly says "Refreshingly accessible, Jim Reese's new selection of poetry, These Trespasses, manages to layer myth and meaning upon a clean, crisp Midwestern vernacular, inventive imagery and luscious sounds."
