Aprašymas

"Dazzling and dizzying are the two words that come to mind after reading Mike Dockins' latest collection of poetry, Letters to So-and-So from Wherever. In this remarkable compilation of letter-poems, Dockins is a darkly comic contemporary Whitman-his language as rich and stunning, his reach as exuberant and far-ranging. From the hilariously poignant opening missive to Santa Claus to the final lines of 'Letter to Sanders from Academia'-his zany critique of (among other things) academia and corporate America-this book will carry you on a brilliant and wildly magnificent ride." Beth Gylys, Spot in the Dark "The thousand injuries of wasting through nearly eight years-eight years!- between books by Mike Dockins! I have grown thin and ragged. O how the insufferable suffering of the universe has screamed-no, yawped-for this. It was well worth the wait. America's book reviewers take note upon your iPads: here's the language laid brutally honest and crankified. Find and grip tiny thesauri to discover violent verbs that describe this assault: a pummeling, whomping, pugilating new collection." Jamie Iredell, I Was a Fat Drunk Catholic School Insomniac
