Echo Train begins "Once upon a time / Books began this / Way" and asks us not "to be shocked to find / We must return and / Stand for what we are" when we reach the book's end. Readers who said they tend to avoid poetry altogether sat down with the intention of reading one or two poems and found themselves reading it all the way through in a single sitting.

Autorenporträt
Aaron Fagan was born in Rochester, New York, and raised in Victor. He was educated at Hampshire College and Syracuse University where he specialized in poetry. He moved to Woodlawn in the Bronx in 2006 and was a copy and research editor for Scientific American magazine. Harold Bloom said his first collection of poems, Garage (Salt Publishing, 2007) was "vivid and aesthetically disturbing work" and that "his promise is considerable because his originality should prove to be decisive." And Idra Novey wrote in The Believer that "Fagan both considers the 'laws' of poetry and breaks them, a mix that has made for an excellent first book."
