“This may be the most anticipated poetry book of the last decade…expect it to haunt you.”—NPR.org
In reviewing Richard Siken’s first book, Crush, the New York Times wrote that “his territory is [where] passion and eloquence collide and fuse.” In this long-awaited follow-up to Crush, Siken turns toward the problems of making and representation, in an unrelenting interrogation of our world of doublings.
