A Question for the King

Beschreibung
How do you avoid getting arrested for shutting up your inner child in a supermarket? And can you send her back? These, and questions for kings and therapists live rent-free in Debby Klein’s second collection A Question For the King, a wild sowing of poems and short fictions follows her exciting debut, Love and Other Maladies. A Question For the King tackles hardy perennials like a blowtorch to knotweed. Love, heartache, loss and other maladies burn somewhere near Fahrenheit 451. A sprinkling of myth: a twist of irony. A meander across the dark side sewn with man-traps: longing, regret, failure, addictions, madness, suicide, emptiness and ontology. An antidote to the bleats of personal growth and sirens of self-improvement. The perfect gift for the existentially disappointed.
