Publisher's Synopsis
This new collection by Ed Nichols reveals again his aptitude in creating strange and
unusual prose poems. The poems entangle common people in bizarre, and sometimes
absurd situations. Anything can happen. A rat speaks, rain melts a man, a castle falls
into the sea, a man is shaped like a bottle, a dead man reveals a secret. Witty and
illuminating, the poems pivot from normal situations to unexplained endings. With
keen ear, dark wit, and eccentric imagination, Nichols has given us another book
of amazing prose poems.
