Provocative, revealing, and often hilarious poems by the
Oscar-winning screenwriter of No Country for Old Men In his screenplays and short stories, Ethan Coen surprises
and delights us with a rich brew of ideas, observations,
and perceptions. In his first collection of poems he does
much the same. The range of his poems is remarkable–funny,
ribald, provocative, sometimes raw, and often touching and
profound. In these poems, Coen writes of his childhood, his hopes and
dreams, his disappointments, his career in Hollywood, his
physically demanding love affair with Mamie Eisenhower, and
his decade-long battle with amphetamines that produced some
of the lengthier poems in the collection. You will chuckle,
nodding with recognition as you turn the pages, perhaps
even stopping occasionally to read.
