Country Club

These poems blur personal and corporate relations, salute lobby art, and mind their mid-apocalypse manners in mosquito country, freewheeling across state lines, equally at home in the halls of head office, lounging poolside, and marooned on a rural route.

A wilderness of traditional and nontraditional forms, rebel rhyme, and irresistible lines, this dexterous collection is a swaggering beast with a palm-treed soul, ruthlessly pursuing the whole hog of all elsewhere with eloquent delinquency.

Andy McGuire’s poems have appeared in Arc, CV2, Vallum, Riddle Fenceand Hazlitt. He lives in Toronto, Ontario.
