Download or read book Children with Enemies written by Stuart Dischell and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2017-09-21 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his fourth book of poems, Stuart Dischell is part elegist, part fabulist, part absurdist; or, as one critic puts it, "a lovely, encompassing mirror of our little but to us so urgent human life." Dischell is a poet who writes at the edges of imagination, memory, and experience, and the poems here are by turns socially outward and inwardly reflective, or darkly comic and heartbreakingly remorseful--but always beautifully crafted and unpredictable. In Dischell's hands, the poems in Children with Enemies come alive to the complications and implications of what it means to be human.
