    "Don Winter's stark, lyrical tales of truck stops and strip bars and closed down rusting factories are as strong and American as Jack Kerouac hitching a ride in a truck rolling down a lonely highway at dawn or Hank Williams singing of train whistles and cheating hearts and they will hit you and move you with their force. He is that rare thing, a true poet." Fred Voss

    "Saturday Night Desperate in my opinion is as good as poetry gets. I remember getting hit once with a baseball bat...and the force of the blow spun me around towards a girl who was laughing. Sometimes poetry will have the same effect on me. Reading Tom McGrath's Letter to an Imaginary Friend was like that. Your poetry hits me like that."---Todd Moore

Authors: Don Winter
"This is the real American poetry, filled with life, short, cut to the chase, cut to the throat, words about how tough life really is if you happen to be among the real people, people who only want to earn a decent living for their sweat and blood. Don Winter has that rare gift few poets have, the ability to be precise with words, and take brevity to an art form. Don Winter is one of the few poets I can honestly say I take joy in reading."---Gary Goude
