Betting on the Night cover

Held's poems are so full of keenly heard sounds, sharply observed sights, sly and sympathetic humor, and enjoyed experience that it is easy to fall in love with them... The poems are about fishing, relaxing with the Packers on TV or a bottle of bourbon, remembering burning the trash outdoors, skipping church of a Sunday, and imagining the glaciers creating the Midwest... Set in Wisconsin and Montana, they are poems of the Northwest, gusts of sweet, cold, enlivening air. Booklist
