This Is How You Disappear is Jeremy Reed's most autobiographical
book to date, and one in which he celebrates the dead and missing
friends who were the formative and enduring influences on his life
as a poet. Using the elegy to imaginatively recreate the often
extraordinary individual characteristics of his subjects, Reed's
personal book of the dead is one that burns with his customary
dynamic for dazzling imagery, glows with compassion for the
suffering, and sparkles with a visual retrieval of detail so acute
it hurts. With the title taken from the first line of a Scott
Walker song, 'Rawhide', This Is How You Disappear is elegiac poetry
at its most brilliant.
