Shoulder Season
Poems by Ange Mlinko

“[Mlinko's] intoxicating, cerebral poems display a unique sense of humor and mystery.”— The New Yorker

With a title that plays upon “shouldering” one's burden, this equally fanciful and hard-hitting collection captures the uncertainties and economic turmoil of twenty-first-century life, where this mind might still be “a little spa,” but the future “ is hedged against the / boys who died.”
