Abandoned Accounts: Poems 2020 - 2021 (First Cut) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

“Rather than leave behind what so often fades in memory, the poems in Roy Christopher’s ‘Abandoned Accounts’ hold onto each hypercolor detail even as ‘giant, plate-glass plans’ are made. But the real joy comes from the seemingly random and temporary connections described with sensuous turns of phrase. To borrow a line from ‘Body Language’, Christopher ‘betrays [our] best effort / to remain innocent, quiet, and disengaged.’”
— Rebecca Guess Cantor, author, The Other Half

“Roy Christopher’s Abandoned Accounts is an easy conversation in a breezy beer garden with an old friend you haven’t seen for years. Talk of music, memories, stolen moments, and philosophical musings share time with stories about life lived in cities across the country. The style is laidback, wandering, and effortless, just like any good conversation should be. Pull up a chair and shoot the shit, you’ll be glad you did.”
— Scott Wozniak, author, Shooting Gallery Vultures

“My favorite book of poetry since Lana Del Rey’s.”
— Peter Relic, author, Ping Pong on the Periodic Table
