Book Description:
|
The mechanisms we use to make sense of our worlds, even our direct intimate experiences of it, come under constant scrutiny and a pressure that feels like love in Liz Howard's wild, scintillating debut poetry collection, Infinite Citizen of the Shaking Tent. What Howard can accomplish with language strikes us as electric, hyper-contemporary, a kind of alchemy of perception and catastrophe.
