In his debut chapbook, Jacob Minasian tracks the often blatant inconsistencies he observes around him. Moving from California to Ohio just weeks before the 2016 presidential election, he records the startling social, political, and ecological transition from one environment to the next. Together, these poems construct the narrative of a journey, of a poet attempting to come to terms with the altered world around him, and to process the colossal shifts in the American collective.

Jacob Minasian received his MFA from Saint Mary's College of California, where he was the 2016 Academy of American Poets University and College Poetry Prize winner. His work has appeared in publications including Poets.org, Museum of Americana, RipRap Literary Journal, and Fire and Rain: Ecopoetry of California by Scarlett Tanager Books. Originally from California, he currently lives in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he teaches at Cincinnati State.
