-Peter Anderson, author of Riding the Wheel, Heading Home: Field Notes, and First Church of the Higher Elevations
Nielson is a poet deeply connected to place - from the red-rock cliffs and high deserts of his native Utah and the unspoiled landscapes of the American West to the rugged Andes Mountains of South America. Equally passionate about the people who have touched his life - his forefathers who wandered far in search of new beginnings, his family, and his friends - the poems in Worn Open Places are the work of a keen observer of both backcountry nature and human nature who relishes life with all its messiness, complexity, and mystery, and invites readers to raise a glass with him in "a toast to all that is good."
-Lynda La Rocca, author of Unbroken and It Could Have Gone Another Way
Nielson, in Worn Open Places, ventures into the Colorado mountains, the rivers of the west, the open highways of the desert, and all the many places that adventure, longing, and curiosity call us to. On these journeys we are allowed to see the world through the poet's eyes but also afforded the opportunity to feel for ourselves the familiar embrace of wonder. Woven throughout this collection, Nielson brings beauty to bear on tragedy, humor as mithridate to angst, joy to illuminate darkness, and wanderlust as elixir for loss - the balance here is delicate - the poems are raw and powerful, their architect kind and grateful.
-Aaron A. Abeyta, winner of The American Book Award
