Fiction Poetry
As contemporary poets sing the glories of birds, birch
trees, and menstruation, regular guys are left scratching
their heads. Who can speak for Everyman? Who will articulate
his love for Xbox 360, for Mama Celeste's frozen pizza, for
the cinematic oeuvre of Bruce Willis? Enter Broetry--a stunning debut from a dazzling new literary
voice. "Broet Laureate" Brian McGackin goes where no poet
has gone before--to Star Wars conventions, to frat parties,
to video game tournaments, and beyond. With poems like "Ode
to That Girl I Dated for, Like, a Month Sophomore Year" and
"My Friends Who Don't Have Student Loans," we follow the Bro
from his high school graduation and college experience
through a "quarter-life crisis" and beyond.
