Within closely watched borders, Christopher Schmidt's poems explode, implode, carouse. Shaped with heady precision, they are full of wordplay, wit, shock, smoothness, and a revolutionary strangeness. I'm inspired by their intellectual stylishness, their perfect edges, their attention to argot and innuendo. Schmidt is a writer of exceptional promise, and The Next in Line is a dynamite debut.
