This brilliant take on the many different ways to feel anger reminds us that this is a spirited emotion that has its place. It can appease, connect, resolve and even lead to tears of laughter. In ten stories, the forest animals encounter their own and others' emotions in a myriad of ways. A wry, poetic, and thought-provoking collection.

With tragicomic bravado and psychological insight, this collection paints a turbulent portrait of a father and his family, creating a poetic sequence that has the scope of a novel and stretches the sense of what is possible in poetry. Each poem is presented as an improvisation on the theme of the father, forming a picture of a family held hostage by the mood swings and histrionics of this patriarch. Combining intense speed and surprise with moments of sudden slowness, this compilation has the flavor and intensity of a modern classic.
