Overview

""I find myself reminded, reading these poems, of Miles Davis, his minimalism and sure excellence (I once saw Miles play in Jerusalem, at the Sultan's Pool, 1987)-but that sounds too hyperbolic, even for a blurb.""-SPARROW ""Sharp writing that is both moving and delightfully lowbrow. Wilson's poems are hilarious like an inside joke: you can't stop laughing and you can't explain why."" -ALEXANDRA EGAN ""The Karen Horney Progressions is an irresistible comic meditation on the disaster of embodiment. Rendered with delightful formal invention and in a restrained American vernacular, these poems of the barely there play themselves out to hilarious and moving effects. Wilson's Karen Horney is a heroine for our times: a Sisyphus on no particular mission who nevertheless finds herself the butt of an unstated metaphysical joke, perhaps the joke of human life itself."" -JAMES LOOP
