ADVANCE PRAISE FOR Neurotica for the Modern Doomscroller BY EDDIE BROPHY

With a passion for braiding the musicality of language, imagery, and meaning, Eddie Brophy's poetry resonates long after the first read. This collection invites critical thinking and reflection, both on society and the self. He writes with equal measures of unforgettable authenticity, resistance, and resilience, as in these lyrical lines from 'Bus Stop': 'tomorrow is another point of view/at the bus stop picking myself back up' and from 'Unmarked VHS Tape #36': 'in this moment of social solitude/ I just want you to say/ those mirrors are crooked/but your smiles I've saved. -Melanie Faith, author of From Promising to Published

Neurotica for the Modern Doomscroller is the script of the traumatized millennial who wears their shame with the same pride as their favorite threadbare flannel. Brophy's words are an existential, nihilistic hurricane that slice like a rusted razor blade while still reminding that there's hope for the rest of us. -Khristy L. Knudtson, Poet
