Synopsis

Hothead is a haibun-patterned, book-length declamation in which no topic is off limits--Buddha, Jesus, Lincoln, America, global warming, eros, mental illness, the natural world, technology, the aging body. Cushman's poetry shows us how to live in a world in which it is difficult to balance "the place where light and dark meet." With an outmoded laptop named Patience as his daily consort, the speaker navigates through themes of love, politics, and belief. "There's got to be someone," Cushman writes, "exploring the way," and the speaker of Hothead steps in to fill those shoes with intelligence, endurance, moxie, and humility.
