Love for Chris Stroffolino and Drinking From What I Once "Maybe all life is preparing for 'The test/ We can only pass if we waste no time/ thinking we can study for it.' If so, Chris Stroffolino's carelessly brilliant poems would be as invaluable as cliff notes. In any case they come in handy." —John Ashbery, Pulitzer Prize winning author of Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror. "There is no line of thought in [Stroffolino’s] poetry that can’t or doesn’t kick out a set of veins pumping blood to and from the dramatic qualities of its existence or an inverted conversion of the optimal antidote to its own fiercely depicted frailties. Chris has fought in his writing for a poetry that is intimate, musical, invested equally in Shakespeare & Joe Strummer and intensely personal without giving up the demand of rhetoric to be a necessity of passion rather than a muted counterbalance. His new book varies the tempo and carries these things through. —Anselm Berrigan, author of Something for Everybody. "Edgy and hip." —Noelle Kocot, author of Phantom Pains of Madness.
