Everyone Coming Towards You

$19.95

by David Petruzelli

These poems speak with a breezy candor and wit—reminiscent of Campbell McGrath’s narrative work. The language is warm and highly accessible, the themes inviting (working for a Long Island escort service, having the great Jackson Pollock reach into his baby crib), and the stories are compelling. These are stories the guy sitting on the next bar stool might tell you, if the guy had a poet’s gift for language.
