The Tip Shop - Paperback
$18.31
by James Brown (Author)
James Brown shakes out oblivion's final sieve in The Tip Shop. Found poems jostle with autobiographical poems, essayistic with epigrammatic, formally expert with some of his very best freeform sprawls. Alternately poignant and indignant, weary and exuberant - but can the James Brown voice ever be truly described? In these poems God prefers drawn-out sports, and your mind has already set sail.
