Very Good in Wrappers. 9780822963158. 6 x 9. 96 pages. paperback. keywords: American Literature Poetry. DESCRIPTION - 'It's a rare pleasure to follow the quick and pointed intelligence that animates Rosser's poems. Some are sonnets, some are long and lean, but all have clear, idiosyncratic voices. They come bearing philosophy, nostalgia, rabies, chicken soup and the head of Holofernes. They're funny, tart, perceptive - good company. And more than one goes armed with a blackjack ending.' - Sarah Lindsay. inventory #40869.…

Alternating between deadpan and dead serious, these poems are often darkly funny, exposing the contradictions inherent in every desire. Misery Prefigured is fueled by a cocky, unsentimental determination to make some consolatory sense of what passes for reality.…
