Bøker av Jeffrey McDaniel

Arranged mostly chronologically, Thin Ice Olympics is a poetic dream diary, charting one man's experience isolating with a wife and teenage daughter in New York state during the Covid pandemic. Swerving between dazed loneliness, grief, and dark comedy, the poetic speaker yearns for connection with loved ones, both living and dead. At times profane and brash, at other times tender and sincere, the poems are demotic, and yet energized by explosive metaphor, achieving moments of bruised pathos and fleeting enlightenment.
