Description

The Echo Chamber Poems by Michael Bazzett is a collection that reimagines ancient myth for our modern age. Bazzett's poems explore the themes of self-absorption, social media, and manufactured celebrity, probing the damage these forces produce and the truths obscured beneath their polished surface. Through his characteristic blend of wry humor, compassion, and darkly comedic insight, Bazzett examines late-stage capitalism, history, and even death itself. His poetry is both searing and tender, shedding layers of disguise to reveal light underneath. In The Echo Chamber, myth is refracted into our current moment, offering a reboot, a remix, or a reimagining that holds up the broken mirror of myth to our present-day selves.
