Our Autumn Recommendation A Year in the New Life is Jack Underwood's much-anticipated second collection, explores imminent societal collapse and public unrest; the limits, myths and complexities of masculinity and fatherhood; and uncanny, often amusing scenarios, such as serving drinks to a gathering of fifteen babies or group kissing in Empathy Class. Throughout, incongruous and domestic subjects realign with a generosity and tenderness that makes this poet so indispensable for the strange times in which we live.
A Year in the New life is available to order here with 25% off for PBS Members.
