About Inside Outrage:

"In Gary Glauber's mesmerizing Inside Outrage, each thought seems to posit its opposite, 'featuring science as sentiment, / facts commensurate to fiction.' The result is the record of an 'indoor person,' one who 'encourag[es] thought beyond / what appears on the page,' a record that takes the reader inside a curious kind of peace disguised as outrage."
—John Koethe

"How pertinent these poems are at this point in our lives. An ancient seer for modern times, Gary Glauber puts the lushness of life at odds with our need to simplify. Everything in both nature and civilization acts as witness, trees as well as trash cans. These poems are busy—they remind us that, to live our lives to the fullest, we should be, too."
—David Kirby

"Inside Outrage takes the reader on a journey to places unknown and illuminates sights unimagined; yet on another page, holds the reader's hand in the face of the mundane and allows words to reveal the mystery and depth of human nature. One can hardly read the poetry of Gary Glauber without growing to observe the experiences of life with eyesight created anew."
