Thomas Fucaloros spectacular first collection of poetry is a beautiful, raw, intense read. According to Emily Kagan Trenchard, curator of the louderARTS Project, Thomas Fucaloros particular gift is to harness the crazed wisdom at the bottom of the bottle, to scrape a fleck of beauty from the underside of a binge, and to call madness by a name so familiar we cant help but recognize it in ourselves. In these 57 poems, Fucaloro brings to light new angles of perception of madness, addiction and modern urban living. Each poem takes risks in form and content. As author Jon Sands notes, To read Thomas is to literally discover each line with him. Theres really nothing he wont say. Hes as surprised as you are.
