"Siken writes about love, desire, violence, and eroticism with a cinematic brilliance and urgency that makes this one of the best books of contemporary poetry."--Victoria Chang, Huffington Post, "Siken writes about love, desire, violence, and eroticism with a cinematic brilliance and urgency that makes this one of the best books of contemporary poetry."--Victoria Chang, Huffington Post "Vital, immediate, and cinematic in scope, [Siken's] verse offers sharply observed vignettes of longing, love, and pain."-- Library Journal (Best Poetry of 2005) "Siken's debut collection derives its energy from the friction among bodies, selves, and lovers. . . . This book will excite patrons and be long remembered. Recommended for all collections."-- Library Journal "Vital, immediate, and cinematic in scope, [Siken's] verse offers sharply observed vignettes of longing, love, and pain."-- Library Journal (Best Poetry of 2005) " Crush embodies an impressive unity of sex, the currents of feeling that carry us helplessly, fleeting encounters that often promise physical transcendence but leave us unloved or emotionally drained. . . . Crush is a vivid, fast-paced book that may be read as a single, powerful sequence."-- Antioch Review "Every poem in Crush is every bit as immediate, engaging, and absorptive as the best films; [Siken] holds the reader rapt, making it almost impossible to look away from the beautiful and troubling scenes he sets. . . . Siken's breathtaking debut possesses all the ingredients of poet Charles Harper Webb's formula for great poetry: wit, passion, and impropriety. Through his powerful use of the second person, Siken reaches out to you, the reader, pulls you into his picture show, makes you the reluctant star. By the end of the collection, you are left feeling implicated, participatory."--Kathleen Rooney, New Hampshire Review "Siken's debut collection, 15 years in the making, hurls the reader into a world of nerve-wracked love-relationships haunted by obsession and futility-expressed with such eloquence as to make the pain of it strangely alluring. With sophisticated wordplay and provocative shifts between first and second person, Siken expresses a frustration with earthbound details and bodily confinement. He effectively juxtaposes holy wishes with mundane images-making them both seem beautiful by some strange lyrical alchemy-throwing love in with the sock drawer."--Nell Casey, poetryfoundation.org "An explosive, frantic splash of language and imagery that depicts both tremendous tenderness and vivid violence between male lovers. Richard Siken writes a pulsing, rambling, surrealistic, and cinematic verse. . . . While the language and energy and pure sensational vision of this poetry might seep into your soul like the whiskey so often invoked in these pages, you will taste the salt of blood on your tongue after you finish reading Crush --and you will never look at love and the comfort it promises the same way again."--Maureen Picard Robins, Rain Taxi "Richard Siken's artistry is, quite frankly, astounding. . . . His talent is evident on almost every page. His world might be a dark one, but his writing shimmers."--Barbara Wiedemann, Magill Book Reviews " Crush is a wondrous, brilliant book. Richard Siken's poetry is daring in its construction, graceful yet startling in its beauty, and complicit with emotions and states of mind that would have remained unintelligible without him."--Dennis Cooper, "Siken writes about love, desire, violence, and eroticism with a cinematic brilliance and urgency that makes this one of the best books of contemporary poetry."--Victoria Chang, Huffington Post One book I keep returning to is Richard Siken's Crush . . . . The poems are vivid, heaving things, stuffed with obsession and surprises. . . . The poems aren't comforting, but they're invigorating. This is a book about thrashing around in the great big world, being messy, being alive."--Elizabeth A. Harris, New York Times Book Review "Siken's debut collection derives its energy from the friction among bodies, selves, and lovers. . . . This book will excite patrons and be long remembered. Recommended for all collections."-- Library Journal "Vital, immediate, and cinematic in scope, [Siken's] verse offers sharply observed vignettes of longing, love, and pain."-- Library Journal (Best Poetry of 2005) " Crush embodies an impressive unity of sex, the currents of feeling that carry us helplessly, fleeting encounters that often promise physical transcendence but leave us unloved or emotionally drained. . . .

Synopsis
The 2004 winner of the Yale Younger Poets competition: a powerful, confessional, erotic collection Finalist for the 2005 National Book Critics Circle Award in Poetry "Siken writes about love, desire, violence, and eroticism with a cinematic brilliance and urgency that makes this one of the best books of contemporary poetry."--Victoria Chang, Huffington Post Richard Siken's Crush , selected as the 2004 winner of the Yale Younger Poets prize, is a powerful collection of poems driven by obsession and love. Siken writes with ferocity, and his reader hurtles unstoppably with him. His poetry is confessional, gay, savage, and charged with violent eroticism. In the world of American poetry, Siken's voice is striking. In her introduction to the book, competition judge Louise Glück hails the "cumulative, driving, apocalyptic power, [and] purgatorial recklessness" of Siken's poems. She notes, "Books of this kind dream big. . . . They restore to poetry that sense of crucial moment and crucial utterance which may indeed be the great genius of the form.", Announcing the 2004 winner of the Yale Younger Poets competition, North America's oldest annual literary prize., Announcing the 2004 winner of the Yale Younger Poets competition, North America's oldest annual literary prize.

    This package of books came quickly and was packed well enough to prevent all but the worst handling conditions. The books themselves were in nearly perfect condition and the box/sleeve was only slightly worn -- just as described in the listing. Was really happy with this order and the price was fantastic for such a great starter set of Hardy Boys. Awesome!

    I buy used blu ray movies almost exclusively. When a great title comes to me, at a great price, responsibly shipped in bubblewrap, I know the seller's smart, and responsible, and their efforts are worthy of our business. A++, all around..! Thanks, Goodwill of Northwest North Carolina..! Let's do this again..! 👋😁👌

    from reading his feedback, i see this seller always UNDER-rates the condition of his books. they are usually in BETTER condition than listed. he also ships fast. so one can be confident that the condition of a book from this seller will be AT LEAST as good as described, usually BETTER, and shipped promptly. the book i just received is in EXCELLENT condition, but was only listed as "acceptable". wish all book sellers were as honest as this one. won't hesitate to buy from him again!
