Grand Mal by Jourdain Barton

"Slobbering, gibbering, and venomous. . .
a poetry seemingly stupefied that it is poetry at all."

Jourdain Barton is the most frightening poet of her generation. In these sixty poems, she detonates the medium with trademark menace, swagger, charm, and humor, knotting a Möbius strip of fracturing perspective, appalling personae, and a curiously troubling precision rarely encountered in contemporary poetry.

Grand Mal is a ruderal scrabble through an epoch, a power, and a double. It is revolting in all senses of the word.
