Model Homes Paperback / softback

Part of the American Poets Continuum series

Paperback / softback

Description

Wayne Koestenbaum knows how to drop the language in the blender of the imagination and hit frappe!

The 13 ottava rima cantos in Model Homes present a neo-Freudian tale of the goings-on in the poet's present home and various events from his childhood.

Modulating a voice that is urbane and ribald, melancholic and wry, Koestenbaum puts a memorable spin on the status quo notion of domestic arrangements. Wayne Koestenbaum holds a Ph.D. in English from Princeton University. He was co-winner of the 1989 Discovery/The Nation poetry contest, has published three books of poetry and three books of prose, and writes frequently for The New York Times Magazine, The London Review of Books and other periodicals.

He lives in New York, NY.
