Epitaphs and obituaries for the age of digital confession.
Artists, athletes, activists, entertainers, evil-doers, rich widows, philosophers…40 poems from eight years in a writer’s on-line diary salute the famous dead—and tackle onslaughts of the ambition, desire, daydreaming, self-berating, fear of aging, loneliness and faithless women common to contemporary America. Sharply observed, often humorous, the collection also offers an anti-war record of existence in Brooklyn, New York during the days and years following the attacks on nearby Lower Manhattan.
The incredibly low price of 99¢ includes one bonus essay and a generous sample of new fiction.
