Just Drive

"Reading, Just Drive, Robert Cooperman's poetic saga of driving cab in NYC, seems to me a variation of a Taoist theme I used to explain my years working as a barman, 'If you stay in one place long enough, everything that can happen, will.' The fares Bob describes, his fellow hacks, the crazy dispatcher, will all be familiar to anyone who has worked in the service industry or who regularly enjoys good narrative poetry. Wherever it is you need to go in this 'Divine Comedy' of the human condition, Just Drive, takes you there. Hop in and enjoy the ride. And don't forget the tip." --Alan Catlin, award winning poet of Alien Nation
