Funhouse - Paperback - 9780615848853

A collection of poetic interpretations of the music of Buckethead: In his new chapbook, Funhouse, Efrayim Levenson responds to the guitar virtuosity of Buckethead with a poetic soul-journey that reverbs through the wildest word riffs. -- David Elsasser; Efrayim Levenson's Funhouse sends us on a wild nightmarish yet at times tender merry-go-round ride through his own private Coney Island and ours. -- Steve Dalachinsky; Potent is the word that comes to mind when reading any one of Efrayim Levenson's poems. ... Levenson's imagery is tenacious, romantic, provocative and human. Poems like "Sea Lion" lend a glimpse into innocence, hope and mortality, while "Modesty Rant" dismisses viral over-sexuality, welcoming humility and grace. The work of a true wordsmith at his finest, Levenson's poetry is simply explosive in the stark quiet. -- Blanche Mackey-Williams
