The Girl Who Left You: After Hours Poetry (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780985307530)

Amber Decker is a poet from West Virginia who has never, despite Hollywood's colorful depictions of her Appalachian roots, had sex with any relatives or animals, nor has she ever cannibalized anyone who has taken a...wrong turn. She has worn many hats-disgruntled delivery girl, security dispatcher, warehouse drone, rodeo princess, massage therapist-but she always comes back to poetry on nights when the moon is full and her heart (or her glass) is half-empty. Amber is in love with love. She's the kind of girl who leaves the house in the middle of the night to go driving with all four windows wound down and the radio cranked up, "just to think." She is a firm believer in the undeniable power of really awesome, world-shattering sex. And hot wings. Those are nice, too.
