Such qualities are on accomplished display in this anticipated new collection, as the poems mature and move on to a wide range of preoccupations, including imminent societal collapse and current riots; the limits of masculinity and complexities of fatherhood; as well as uncanny, often amusing scenarios, such as serving drinks to a gathering of fifteen babies or group kissing in Empathy Class. Throughout, incongruous and domestic subjects re-align in skewed lyrics and thought experiments, all presented with a generosity and tenderness that makes the poet so unmistakable - and indispensable for the strange times in which we live.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Faber \u0026 Faber","offers":[{"title":"Year in the New Life | Jack Underwood | Quality | 9780571367252 | New | Poetry 1286497","offer_id":50550589718786,"sku":"1286497","price":28.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/31XiYu2OvwS.jpg?v=1790469364","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/year-in-the-new-life","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
