Book Overview
The final collection by the late Jason Shinder, "one of the finest of our new poets" (Gerald Stern)
I close my eyes and try to rememberwhen I was unopposed, when I started to die,
buoyant, fragrant, shuddering with love.
--from "Before" Jason Shinder's last poems are his moving testimonies to poetry, love, and friendship. With power, clarity, and disarming humor, the poems confront grief and mortality with a humility and fortitude that come only "with hope, stupid hope." Stupid Hope is Shinder's wry, penetrating, and wise farewell.
