Typewriter Rodeo: Real People, Real Stories, Custom Poems by Jodi EgertonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Poetry written on typewriters--what could be more perfect than that? Typewriter Rodeo is a look at a group of four poets that take their trusty tools on the road and write free poems for people on the spot.
I remember hearing about this group a few months ago and sharing an article because I thought it was a great concept. Now that their journey is put together it a book, it's a fun look at what they can do, how they can impact lives, and how much fun poetry can be (even when people don't think they like poetry). Along with great content, this book also has a great look to it--the layout makes you feel like you are digging around on the top of a writer's desk. This would make a great coffee table book for anyone that appreciates poetry and great human interest stories.
