| Abstract
|
:
|
Funny, compelling, and with an unapologetic love of popular culture, this collection presents an elaborate lyric postcard, which explores everything from a most unprivileged seat on the cheapest bus to love and (somebody else's) fame. The poet challenges the bonds of place in a global (American) economy with personal warmth and characteristic wisecracking--daring to dream of escape not only to an impossibly meaty Southern California, but to the basement of the poetic heart.
