"A fearless, wide-ranging book on the state of poetry and American literary culture by Tony Hoagland, the author of "What Narcissism Means to Me""""""Live American poetry is absent from our public schools. The teaching of poetry languishes, and that region of youthful neurological terrain capable of being ignited only by poetry is largely dark, unpopulated, and silent, like a classroom whose shades are drawn. This is more than a shame, f ..."

"The anticipated first collection of essays by celebrated poet Tony Hoagland, author of What Narcissism Means to Me Meanness, the very thing that is unforgivable in human social life, in poetry is thrilling and valuable. Why? Because the willingness to be offensive sets free the ruthless observer in all of us, the spiteful perceptive angel who sees and tells, unimpeded by nicety or second thoughts. There is truth-telling, and more, in me ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-299-13584-3, ISBN: 0-299-13584-5

"Tony Hoagland captures the recognizably American landscape of a man of his generation:  sex, friendship, rock and roll, cars, high optimism, and disillusion.  With what Robert Pinsky has called “the saving vulgarity of American poetry,”  Hoagland’s small biographies of destruction reveal that defeat is a natural prelude to grace and loss a kind of threshold to freedom. “A remarkable book.  Without any rhetorical straining, with a disarm ..."

Paperback, 96 Pages, Published 2010 by Bloodaxe
ISBN-13: 978-1-85224-872-7, ISBN: 1-85224-872-6

"Poetry Book Society Recommendation. Tony Hoagland's zany poems poke and provoke at the same time as they entertain and delight. He is American poetry's hilarious 'high priest of irony', a wisecracker and a risktaker whose disarming humour, self-scathing and tenderness are all fuelled by an aggressive moral intelligence. He pushes the poem not just to its limits but over the edge. "Unincorporated Persons in the Late Honda Dynasty" is his ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-78037-478-9, ISBN: 1-78037-478-X

"America's Tony Hoagland (1953-2018) was known for provocative poems which interrogate human nature and contemporary culture with an intimate and wild urgency, located somewhere between outrage, stand-up comedy, and grief. The new poems in his final collection are no less sceptical and amusing, but show a drift towards greater depths of open emotion. Over 25 years, Hoagland's poetry became more tender and more encompassing, turning his c ..."

"Winner of the "American Poetry Review"/Honickman First Book Award."Matthew Dickman's all-American poems are the epitome of the pleasure principle; as clever as they are, they refuse to have ulterior intellectual pretensions; really, I think, they are spiritual in character--free and easy and unself-conscious, lusty, full of sensuous aspiration. . . . We turn loose such poets into our culture so that they can provoke the rest of us into ..."
