Description
"Adam Fitzgerald's second collection of poems sets out to estrange American history through the unreliable lenses of autobiography and technology. Suffused with profound loss and treacherous nostalgia for a bygone era of unfettered consumerism, this is also poetry made eerily familiar. Reflecting on the 1990s New Jersey suburbia of the poet's youth, Fitzgerald's new book performs a psychological autopsy on our national lust for safety and comfort amid the 'white noise' of daily living."--Dust jacket.
