What Narcissism Means to Me, Paperback / softback Book

What Narcissism Means to Me Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Tony Hoagland’s zany poems poke and provoke at the same time as they entertain and delight.

He was American poetry’s hilarious ‘high priest of irony’, a wisecracker and a risktaker whose disarming humour, self-scathing and tenderness are all fuelled by an aggressive moral intelligence.

He pushes the poem not just to its limits but over the edge.

His first UK book of poems is a selection drawing on three collections, Sweet Ruin (1992), Donkey Gospel (1998) and What Narcissism Means to Me (2003).

He published three later collections, Unincorporated Persons in the Late Honda Dynasty (2010), Application for Release from the Dream (2015) and Priest Turned Therapist Treats Fear of God, published posthumously in the UK by Bloodaxe in 2019.
