Description
Fire Season by Patrick Coleman explores the complexities of contemporary life through poetry. Occasioned by the poet's experiences as a new parent and his observations of the world around him, these poems navigate themes of parenthood, marriage, art, and commerce. With a conversational tone that veers into anxiety and self-mockery, they search for gratitude in the face of uncertainty. The poems in Fire Season resist the confusions of modern life, instead finding moments of beauty and connection. Through his work, Coleman offers a nuanced exploration of the human experience, one that acknowledges both the fragility and resilience of life. This collection is a powerful meditation on the nature of existence, one that finds strength in vulnerability and hope in the face of adversity.
