"Milligan is a poet's poet. Wisdom becomes song as language becomes movement and desire becomes drive in these well-crafted poems. These meditations move us to where past and future fuse: in a father's tools tied with a knot a son may never pull again, or a mother's loss of her child's name. Take to the Highway dares to answer the question, 'Who are you again?'"-Lorna Dee Cervantes, author of Drive: The First Quartet and Sueno|"Take to the Highway is indeed about highways, but more crucially it's about journeys, and about the intricate memory map of human consciousness. It's a great pleasure to follow Bryce Milligan along side roads, detours, switchbacks, and eerily beckoning paths; and to encounter at the end a design, a destination, a questing mind at peace."-Stephen Harrigan, author of The Gates of the Alamo|"Streaming with wisdom and clear mind, Milligan unfolds muraled passages of consciousness come 'asunder with some wild desire.' In this shifting play of perception, memory, fast long-line and prose fevers, we are given the "Hallelujah" of envisioning, which is the diamond-eyed gift of this superb collection. Tour de force, necessary materials for the road ahead in these times."-Juan Felipe Herrera, Poet Laureate of the United States
Take to the Highway is a book about journeys and the intricate memory map of human consciousness. Much of the book was literally written while driving across the expanse of Texas. The poems embody family history, anticipate his mother's coming death, and embody the reflections of this "poet's poet" on a life lived along many roads within an interior landscape. Formal and yet deeply personal, the book dares to ask, in the words of reviewer Lorna Dee Cervantes, "Who are you again?"
