From the Publisher:
Joe Di Prisco's writiing style is so distinctive that if I found his grocery list lying in the street, I'd know who wrote it (and I'd probably publish it). He's a great pain in the ass, but his writing makes the coddling, cajoling, and arguing well worth the effort. I'm lucky to personally know one of my favorite authors.
About the Author:
Joseph Di Prisco published poems, essays, and reviews in numerous journals, and two books of poetry: Wits End (University of Missouri Press) and Poems in Which, which won the Dorothy Brunsman Prize (Bear Star Press). He was awarded The Young Poets and The Theodore Roethke Prizes from Poetry Northwest. He taught for over twenty years, and is the coauthor of Field Guide to the American Teenager, published by Perseus Books. He lives in Berkeley, California, with his wife, photographer Patricia James, and their three supportive dogs.
