Description

In Michael Earl Craigs sixth book, poems resonate with an inscrutable logic that feels excitedly otherworldly and unsettlingly familiar.

Whether he be writing about the cadaver that Hans Holbein the Younger used as a model, Montana as the Italy of God, or the milking rituals in Kelly ReichardtsFirst Cow,Iggy Horseis a book that articulates the sadness and strangeness of American life with the poetic observations of true satire.
