Résumé:
Someone who doesn’t experience or understand pleasure re-invents poetry for the 21st century conflicted ego, viewing life as a political problem that no amount of startling emotional turmoil or insight can solve. The texts here range from confessions of conflicted feelings to theories of obsolesce, from the desire for a fluffy towel, to possible dialogs for a future detective novel. Freely mixing a calm, straight-forward voice with fragmented shades of hysteria and polemic, the book lays bare the unsettling disappointment of youthful hope, the utopian dream, and energy lost somewhere between a party and a political action.

Exploring class, ownership, and civic duty, Moving Day captures the totalitarian exercise of a mandatory, city-wide move and the effect of its bureaucratic mishaps.

The world is changing in ways that only children understand. Floods come and go in the blink of an eye and tin can phones call out warnings and fall from the sky. In the alleyways magicians pull ghosts out of hats, while policemen climb over fences, out of the drains, and airplanes are carefully folded notes left all over the place.

The world is changing in ways that only children understand. Floods come and go in the blink of an eye and tin can phones call out warnings and fall from the sky. In the alleyways magicians pull ghosts out of hats, while policemen climb over fences, out of the drains, and airplanes are carefully folded notes left all over the place. There is a steamboat in the backyard and one day it will die. Life, as it is known in i cannot pretend to be a ghost today, is a domestic storm brewing within the careful vocabulary that Fletcher takes for rides around the house, down the hallway, and into the kitchen.
