Interruptions of static, a slow confetti of grief drifting into the corners, mysterious white noise dispatches. Here is a meditation on estrangement--from an other, from the world, from the self--and its long aftermath spent learning how to cultivate tenderness and devotion in a world \"where nobody \/ is tender enough,\" a practice that alternates between sorrow and transcendence. These poems are little ceremonies of attention to a variety of lonelinesses, both human and non-human. Strange, lyrical and funny, the third collection of poems by Allison Titus simultaneously reckons with and marvels at \"the luminously borrowed \/ experiment that living is\" in a world that feels terrible and hopeful, beautiful and precarious.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAllison Titus\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of the poetry collections \u003ci\u003eThe True Book of Animal Homes\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eSum of Every Lost Ship\u003c\/i\u003e, the novel\u003ci\u003e The Arsonist's Song Has Nothing to Do With Fire\u003c\/i\u003e, and several chapbooks.
