Miscellaneous, Tender

Susanna Styve's first book of poetry, Miscellaneous, Tender, invites us into the private, sometimes lonely, world of an only child, offering comfort to those who grew up as only children, and challenging others to plunge down the rabbit hole of surprise. Styve's prose poems create a fast-moving narrative, ranging from the serious to the light-hearted. The book moves lightly with wit and wry humor.
