Book synopsis

Praise for Radio Tooth by Paul Jenkins: "Jenkins navigates poetically perilous territory by remaining more or less in his own backyard, yet his revolutions on the "treadmill of sadness and consolation" produce luminous, resonant lyrics." --Brian Henry, Harvard Review "Jenkins' resolutions and truces are indomiably surreal; these poems -- on geography, genetics, faith, and loss -- are jokes and non-jokes at once, dazzingly off, yet pure reportage. -- "Briefly Noted" The New Yorker "Jenkins' poems are literally impulsive, they move in abrupt bursts of intelligent feeling, and they are aimed more at emotional fidelity than at achieving a rational, balanced perspective... These energetic poems halt and plunge forward in associative bytes, phrasing which is both ireegular and rhythmic... Radio Tooth is a collection of poems as fresh as mouthwash, spoken in a voice at once spontaneous, lyrical, and human. --Tony Hogland, Puerto del Sol
