Inhaltsangabe

Equal parts funny and devastating, Adrian Sobol's debut dares us to have a good time through our own despair. Written under the influence of immense Catholic guilt, The Life of the Party is Harder to Find Until You're the Last One Around is a roadmap of longing, regret, and all kinds of venial sins. These poems, blurring the line between the absurd and mundane, explore the ways poetry can never solve our problems, only make them prettier. They remind us "we have a right to be tired / bored." When you're a disaster, at least you can take comfort knowing "every trainwreck is [...] sincere."
