Summary: Raw and Uncensored
Comment: No, this poetry isn't about sex. It's about laughing in death's face, begging it to play Russian Roulette with you.
As I read this book, my stomach became twisted in knots. I cried 3 poems into it, and became nauseous toward the middle. There is one VERY sweet poem, "Crowning Her," which gave me hope, made me smile (out of a sense of relief), but the speaker spirals down again, hard.
I could NOT put this book down. I read every poem two or three times before devouring the next. It's the exact same feeling I got when I read American Psycho, although the subject matter is completely different.
After I put the book down, I wanted to be near the writer and help bear the pain. You cannot read this book and NOT be greatly affected. Bravo.
[edit a few weeks later] Apparently I got very near the writer. I just married him. ;-)0

Summary: another amazing discovery...
Comment: this was not an easy book to read...
but if you like unflinching honesty and intense reality, try it out.
this is not poetry to make you feel uplifted or enlightened or made into a better person.
these are words to make you reevaluate who and what you are when you look in the mirror.

Summary: Disturbing, yet Powerful
Comment: This book is a disturbing book, yet it's tight and powerful. A solid read, if you can handle it.
