In his harsh and unflinching debut collection, poet Dylan Moore explores the dark corridors of post-teen angst and the disaffected anger of the 20-something who woke up one morning to discover adulthood was a lie. This is a book for young people who currently roam the halls in awkwardness and alienation and for adults who have discovered that the big questions have not become easier to answer with age. With a style that is simultaneously clumsy, elegant, and profoundly powerful, Moore takes us on an introspective journey that will resonate with anyone who has lamented at the limitations of the world around them while dreaming of something better.
