This collection is a record of one mans navigation of loss, addiction, and labor. At once a meditation on the allure of a legacy in self-destruction and a giving over to hope, Felling is an exploration in honesty. Rendered in direct language and through clear eyes, this book, as its title indicates, is concerned with tensions of agency, creation, and destruction upward and downward motion. After the 1940 publication of Native Son, Richard Wright shared some of his stylistic goals in the novel. I wanted the reader to feel that Biggers story was happening now, he writes, like a play upon the stage or a movie unfolding upon the screen. Action follows action, as in a prize fight. Kelan Nees poetry delivers the immediacy and punch that Wright demanded of literature. Nee has the head for poetry, the heart for poetry, and above all, the guts. This debut collection holds back nothing and leaves me reeling with high hopes for Nees future in the craft.Gregory Fraser, judge and author of Designed for Flight and Answering the Ruins
