About this product

Product Information

These poems question the usefulness of wealth and ownership as markers of success. Taking wine fridges and fake flowers as emblems of capitalism's failure to assuage human loneliness, the speakers in these poems find joy in shared meals and glasses of wine, and use moments of mutual attention to challenge notions of class in America.

Reviews
" Narcissus Americana makes legible and lyrical the flown-over eros of the heartland son who inherits the dreams of uncharted newness, who destines a newness of himself, who turns to face a hardened plain not unlike Lauren Berlant's 'cruel optimism.'" --Justin Phillip Reed, author of Indecency and A History of Flamboyance, "Travis Mossotti is one of a thriving group of American poets writing these days whose work exposes the mendacity of those who cite 'difficulty' as an excuse for not reading poetry." --Billy Collins, "In these poems--incantatory, tender, macho, heartbroken, funny, gorgeous, wild--Travis Mossotti gives us the true American field guide to America. And like the flower of the title that bursts up in late winter, reminding us that the world's not ending (at least not just yet), he offers us something that feels a lot like hope." --Stefene Russell, Culture Editor, St. Louis Magazine, "With clear-eyed intelligence, Narcissus Americana surveys the unfolding American disaster: ecological damage 'too late for healing,' desperate hypocrisies, and overextended credit of the powerful and powerless alike . . . and in the ironic space between what we want and what we get, Mossotti discovers resources we can use right now: dark laughter and resolute tenderness." --Devin Johnston, author of Far-Fetched, "Travis Mossotti has settled into his maturity, bringing to his work an awareness that only comes with a sense of history both great and small, from the lessons of Machiavelli to the lessons we learn when someone our age dies. Of the many fine poems here, a favorite is 'Joint with Christine at a Tool Concert,' in which the poet treats a prison-bound meth addict with the love and insight we all deserve." --David Kirby, author of Get Up, Please

Product is 95% alike picture but a little more blurry. Controller play well but had a notice from psn that my joypad wasn't authentic and could by problematic🤷‍♂️ no trouble so far! Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
