Description
Poetry. Art. With ABOUT TO BE YOUNG, Lawrence sets out to write the most emotional poetry that he can. The poems deploy plain language, grammatical torque, and organic visual forms to investigate issues of memory, family, queer sexuality, and shame. Throughout the sequence, he takes the poet John Wieners's injunction that he must write the most embarrassing thing as a rule, and indulge in the absolute lyric impulse to be plangent--to cringe and sing.
