Paperback. Zustand: Good. This first collection of poems unveils the magician's trick: an illusion only works if we believe that what we've just seen is exactly what happened. With a hairsplitting sense of detail and spellbinding language, Joel Brouwer's poems consider characters.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. As Long as We're Here is an off-key anthem, a funhouse mirror held up to our dumpster fire era. Chronically online, distracted and distracting, with too many browser tabs open at once, attentive to everything and focused on nothing, Brouwer delights in the late capitalist absurdities of sleeping apps and internet dance crazes, and riffs on the argot of the group chat and the team meeting. These slippery poems both suffer from and revel in their ADD. Their shifts are as fleet as our news feeds, their serpentine sentences leap from barroom jests to high modernist splendor and back. But the book is not all fun and games. Dreamy tales of edgelords and loyalty oaths often arrive at places of surprising pathos and beauty. Mortality gnaws at the narrators of these poems, and political unrest lurks in the background. Still, a sense of solidarity--that we of the title, a recurring pronoun throughout--keeps despair at bay. Indeed, As Long as We're Here is a book of intimacy, of the coterie. Friends and lovers people its lyrics, which often feel like late-night hang sessions with eccentric, wise-cracking pals. Full of wry wisdom and lush music, As Long as We're Here knows what to do with a diminished thing: make it sing.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Joel Brouwer writes prose poems that walk a wire of anxiety through contemporary life where you realize you're naked under your coat, you don't remember a single line, and you'll have to go on like that, you'll have to go on and sing. And yet the pieces in Centuries are so various and unpredictable and startling, sometimes hyperbolic, often sordid. The garage smells of turpentine and dirty magazines. The freezer hums with meat. You pour yourself an insecticide martini, scratch idly at your wart, and chit-chat with a cricket. Brouwer's universe, finally, as it springs and bristles with odd, nightmarish details and human voices, is able to circle back to a place of consolation where A body has soft and hards parts, like a piano. Music comes from where they meet. In the end, Brouwer uses the disparate contingencies of existence like an instrument through which he can control chaos through art, through language.…
