"The third full-length collection by Julien Poirier, Out of Print is a truly bicoastal volume, reflecting the poet's years in New York as well as his return to his Bay Area roots. Consider it a meetinghouse between late New York School and contemporary California surrealism, a series of quips intercepted from America's underground poetry telegraph, or an absurdist mirror held up to consumerist culture. Julien Poirier is the co-founder of Ugly Duckling Presse. He has taught poetry in New York City and San Francisco public schools and at San Quentin State Prison. Previous books include Way Too West (2015) and El Golpe Chileño (2010)"-- Provided by publisher.
"The third full-length poetry volume by Ugly Duckling Presse co-founder Julien Poirier, Out of Print is a series of quips and oaths intercepted on the underground telegraph between New York City and San Francisco. Holding an absurdist mirror up to our contemporary culture, Out of Print positions itself as the antithesis of the political koans and sweatshop dreams of America"-- Provided by publisher.
