Prose poems and flash fictions revealing the heart-wrenching, absurd, life-changing nature of living through Covid, political chaos, and personal upheaval.
Peter Conners' unique blend of prose poetry, flash
"Part Tao, part surrealist dialogue, Peter Conners has penned a book of precise yet effusive runes from the well-gnawed bones of a man reflecting upon his family and nation at midlife. Here we have poet as citizen, philosopher, father, humorist, husband, we have the pandemic (in actuality and as metaphor), we have passing time, memory, 'our whole dumb history, ' the theater of self with its 'copious technical difficulties.' These are minimalist and thin-trimmed parable-like stories, dialogues, and beautiful confessions that in the end haggle down the price we've paid through the last brutal years, encouraging the reader to take our problems and 'Feed them to the squirrels. Those little fuckers will eat anything.'"
--Sean Thomas Dougherty
