Description

Holly Pester's debut collection of poems, Comic Timing, is a powerful exploration of living and working as a radical act. Through unique, fragmentary, and illusory turns of phrase, Pester navigates the intersection of politics and personal experience. These poems offer a wry humor and beautifully performed naivety, poking fun at the expectations of people in a commodified culture while interrogating pressing issues such as worker's rights, feminisms, reproductive rights, and marginalized bodies. With a profound intellect and innovative voice, Pester mines radical and anarchic histories to create a collection that is both absurd and serious. A hugely original approach to addressing some of the most significant concerns of our time, Comic Timing is a striking and thought-provoking work that will appeal to readers interested in poetry and politics.
