Description

Book Synopsis
All of those described here are vulnerable, some of them searingly so, and all are acutely aware of just how angular their worlds can be, whether accompanied by terror or hilarity.

Trade Review
These poems have depth and richness of observation that repels easy emotion and compel-and reward-repeated reading. Booklist In his eighth book of verse, Wyatt Prunty's low-keyed eloquence conveys an authentic ache that more declamatory poets sometimes miss. Times Literary Supplement 2009
