Synopsis

Winner of the Fourth Annual Marystina Santiestevan First Book Prize

A deft reimagination of the fable, THE BIRTHDAY OF THE DEAD is dark, rich, and immediately accessible, capable of conjuring tears, laughs, and both earth-shattering and life-affirming revelations. Selected by Bob Hicok, THE BIRTHDAY OF THE DEAD won the fourth annual Marystina Santiestevan First Book Prize.

Debut collection of poems that is stark, bleak, funny, bizarre, lacerating, totemic, intimate, dark, raw-boned, metal, viscerality, play, violence, constellate, rather than say speaks through and for, rather than discloses, performs rather than knows.
