OverviewIn his second full-length poetry collection, Christopher McCurry immerses the reader into the world of God Boy and his struggles and complicated relationships with engaging and well-crafted poems that cannot leave us indifferent to the character's evolution. ""Christopher McCurry's The Gospel of God Boy is poetry for contemporary America. The poems use the genre designations Christian scriptures-Gospel, Apocrypha, Revelation, Parable, Prophecy-and the mythic structures of brother stories (Cain and Abel, the older brother and the younger brother) to tell domestic and mundane stories about what we owe each other and how we fail one another. Despite their constant nod to theological and religious narrative structures, the language is sparse, common, antitheological, and antipoetic, except to the extent that it is tied to the world of the bodily senses.""-Jeremy Paden Full Product DetailsAuthor: Christopher McCurryPublisher: Accents Publishing Imprint: Accents Publishing Dimensions: Width: 15.20cm , Height: 0.50cm , Length: 22.90cm Weight: 0.127kg ISBN: 9781961127098ISBN 10: 1961127091 Pages: 88 Publication Date: 15 March 2025 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Available To Order We have confirmation that this item is in stock with the supplier.
