Sobre IBD

Modern, playful and accessible, these poems fuse nature and the mundane clutter of the world. Broad range demonstrates both poignancy - as in the poems of his father's decline and death - and outright hilarity ('Platonic Love,' 'The Auto Body Shop'). Original, fresh, funny and poignant, Anderson anthropomorphizes objects and emotions so that you read the lines and think 'Yes! Ha!'
