Description
The Late Parade Poems by Adam Fitzgerald A debut collection that welcomes a new modernist aesthetic for the twenty-first century. This volume brings together forty-eight poems that blend tones playful and elegiac, nostalgic and absurd. Fitzgerald's poetry is characterized by its shape-shifting inspirations, which take readers on a multiplicity of chimerical stops, from the unreal cities of Dubai to the former Soviet Union, and from Nigerian spammers to the Virgin Mary. The poems are mash-ups of litanies, monologues and odes, filled with madcap slips of tongue, innuendo, archaisms and everyday slang. At its core, The Late Parade is a testament to the powers of confusion, which may disguise our sense of loss but offer in return that eloquent tonic known as poetry.
