Description
Swoop Poems by Hailey Leithauser is a sonically audacious first book that takes the reader on a journey through lyricism. With a resplendent array of forms, from traditional verse to experimental experiments, this debut showcases sharp objects speaking for themselves and excess in all its glory. In these poems, sex is taken up alfresco, an enigmatic question is posed, and the song of a mockingbird drives us out of bed. Hailey Leithauser's virtuosic and exhilarating style will appeal to readers looking for a unique poetic voice. Hailey Leithauser's Swoop is a worthwhile read for anyone who enjoys innovative poetry.
