Poetry. "Grounded by generous humor, graced with charming music, Rick Mullin's latest collection, COELACANTH, mingles the modesty of a man 'in need / of better shoes' with the regal bearing of the artist-as-hero, one gifted with 'a formula for magic,' the last of an untamed, 'legendary breed.' In a world gone 'austere' and 'ashen,' in an age when 'mythology has reached a sorry pass,' we are comforted by Mullin's poems, which share with the famous living-fossil fish of the book's title the power to inspire wonder in things long since thought to have disappeared from the earth."—Ernest Hilbert
