Evolution, with its channeling of Quakers, Fresca, and cell phones, radiates vital insight, purpose, and risk, like in these opening lines of the title poem: Something unearthly about today so I buy a Diet Coke & a newspaper a version of me something about me on the earth & its sneakers & feeling like the earths furniture but that cant be true or like the coke & the Times its true for a little while.AnnotationMyles collection finds the game-changing writer keying lines in an idiomatic, euphoric style that The New York Times has called one of the essential voices in American poetry.About the AuthorEileen Myles is the author of more than twenty books, including Afterglow (a dog memoir), Inferno (a poets novel), Chelsea Girls, and Cool For You.
