No one wants to live in the ElderGrove Retirement Community, but
Carol Ann DeFazio is doing her best to make it home. If only her
own weren't such a mess, and if only the corporation that owns
ElderGrove weren't such a pain in the ass, and if only someone
wasn't killing her residents, one by one...
Marc Pietrzykowski's sixth book of poetry licks the wounds of the
mangled poetry puppy god, genuflects in appropriate directions and
postures, gives thanks to our linguistic facility, and performs all
the other gestures poets need do with aplomb. Not so much an
exercise in snide absurdity as one might suppose from this
description, Straddling the Sibyl includes poems for the modern
workplace, fragments for Claudette Colbert, and a long essay in
verse about the effects of modern social networks on the way our
brains perceive our bodies. I think you should read it, and so does
Marc. With a pastry, in hand, if possible.
Poems good to read and think about contained within. Have at it.
The poems and images in this emblem book are in some way concerned
with the word "fire." Please take necessary safety precautions.
This is the story of a series of bad decisions involving ice cream
trucks, Al-Qaeda, bibliomania, college towns, qat, needle-nose
pliers, unhappy policemen, glow-in-the-dark bocce, black swans, the
witness protection program, frozen pizza, and the CIA (or maybe it
wasn't the CIA). Not necessarily in that order.
