Zoo Music marks another step in the Minneapolis Renaissance  William Waltz’s book, like those of his Twin Cities peers, storms over the American poetic landscape at the right time, sweeping aside today’s tired ultra-irony and hyper-humor in favor of ineffable strangeness and touching sincerity. A zebra of different stripes.

"In Waltz’s supra-terrestrial view of this cross-pollinated world, of course, we recognize a familiar state of affairsregarding self-consciousness, the knowledge of our own existence, and the fact that our interface with the world is many things, but nothing if not thrilling and a little bit sad."
