Imbued with the poet's characteristic precision and passion, the collection charts a hazardous course through heartache, climate change, dental work, \u003cem\u003eOutlander\u003c\/em\u003e, semiotics, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCombatting existential gloom with a wicked, seductive energy, Addonizio investigates desire, loss, and the madness of contemporary life. She calls out to Walt Whitman and John Keats, echoes Dorothy Parker, and finds sisterhood with Virginia Woolf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSometimes confessional, sometimes philosophical, these poems weave from desolation to drollery and clamor with raucous imagery: an insect in high heels, a wolf at an uncomfortable party, a glowing and self-serious guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA poet whose \"voice lifts from the page, alive and biting\" (Sky Sanchez, San Francisco Book Review), Addonizio reminds her reader, \"\u003cem\u003eif you think nothing \u0026amp; \/ no one can \/ listen I love you joy is coming\u003c\/em\u003e.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10382646\"\u003eKim Addonizio\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e W.
