A funny and surprising interaction with dailiness, including our phones--the hardware and the relationships maintained through them--and whatever else is still tactile. --Maddie Crum, Vulture
Stranger, Emily Hunt's long-awaited follow-up to her acclaimed debut collection of poems, intimately chronicles the effects of love, labor and grief on the life and sensibility of an artist. These poems shed a shifting light on the peculiar textures of our era. Hunt treads with concision, vigor and excitement, addressing directly lived experiences--from the mundane to the profound. Whether it's her curious interactions with dating apps, 19th-century political speeches, dizzying corporate communication or emails from her schizophrenic brother, the exact details and use of language in these poems become almost elemental, making an urgent record of the present. Stranger blurs the boundary between life and art--The things that happened / bled into the language we exchanged.--with the crystalline touch and nuance of a truly gifted writer.
