Autobiomythography & Gallery

“Joe Millar’s Autobiomythography & Gallery is the best new book of poetry read by this reviewer this year. It is incredibly strong.”
— Matt Soucy, reviewing for Coldfront Magazine

Millar’s stunning debut explores and collides the dual experiences of self and world in a language and music superbly calibrated. There is an authority of voice and a sweep of experience that graces each of these beautifully made poems.
— Stuart Dischell, authur of Backwards Days, Dig Safe, Good Hope Road and Evenings & Avenues

Inventive and eclectic, Millar’s poems home in on the order in the chaos.
— J. C. Hallman, author of The Chess Artist and The Devil is a Gentleman

I am especially moved by the series entitled “Memory of the Body,” finding in each a living portrait of one cognizant and honest in the minutes of his life.
— Claudia Keelan, author of The Devotion Field, Utopic and The Secularist
