"Interstate Chokehold" is his first major collection. Frank currently lives in North Dakota and is working on his first novel. Reviews Frank Reardon is a truly exceptional young poet currently rising up from the bowels of the internet. One could compare his work to prominent street poets of past generations, but it would be unfair to lump him in with anyone, for his work has no problem standing on its own merit. - John Dorsey Frank Reardon works words like a hungry young prize fighter, creating killer combinations that produce knock out verse. A real contender, the kids a triple threat with heart, style and class. An up and comer to be reckoned with. - S.A. Griffin Frank Reardon is a prophet, word brawler and unapologetic caller of societys bullshit. His words are brutally honest and can take you places you didnt know existed or werent comfortable traveling to alone. One of the best voices of our generation. - Richard Daley Frank Reardon is a heart beating through impenetrable odds. His writing reaches into your skin, grabs your bones and asks you to dive head first off the cliffs of fear and fragility into the vulnerable sky of our empathetic space and time. - Scott Wannberg
