Sobre IBD

“In The Moon as Understood by Skyscrapers, a keen eye is at work. Sarrocco offers poems that—though composed from the epicenter of American culture—speak with the perspicuity of outside perspective. His lines shine light on contemporary hypocrisy and absurdity, all the while dazzling readers with the beauty of the everyday, “the burnt / edges of things.” Heartrending—often hilarious—these pages reveal a scar on a forearm as art, a man blaring LeeMoses in a public bathroom as prophet. This is a timely collection from an important new voice in poetry.”—Erika Brumett, author of Bonehouse and Scrap Metal Sky 3

    Edward V Bonner

Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
