Book Description
Whether wildly or wryly funny, each poem in Phoebe Stuckes' debut presents an episode in the up-and-down life of a wise-cracking party girl inhabiting a world of dancefloors and bathrooms, but beneath the laughter and antics these are self-questioning poems about self-belief, self-image, vulnerability, insecurity, loneliness, trauma and survival.

Book Description
This is a tale you can read three ways. The first time through, it's the story of a woman who takes one glance at conventional early-twentieth-century life, and throws in her lot with art instead. The second time, you might ask yourself if this woman is based on any particular artist of the inter-war period, and you'd be right to wonder - though this is no work of scholarly biography. A line connects the historical to the here-and-now, but it's feathered and soft. Third time reading, find the point where memoir and imagination connect. Now you can look.

Book Description
Charlotte Geater's poems for my FBI agent takes us down a Lynchian rabbit hole in which a sad and shadowy agent follows the poet's every move. This book's true surrealism lies in the fidelity with which it depicts how we now live--in a world where we are each the warm applause at the end of our own nightly show, and the rabid dogs ever-ready to devour one of our own. These poems are propelled forward by a pulsing investigative energy and filmic story arc.
