by Brian Stephen Ellis (Author)
Uncontrolled Experiments In Freedom unveils the poetically manic and radiant life of Brian Stephen Ellis.
His words quiver, rant, and teeter on the brink of collapsing under their own intensity. With narratives drawn from a realm where poetry is believed absent, his verses hold the essence of a unique world.
Like a second-hand microscope, Ellis' words create the fuzzy science of survival, painting vivid and vibrant portraits.
A welcome addition to the Boston spoken word tradition, his colorful voice leaves a lasting impression.
