Brian Henry, Doppelgänger

Picture
 ISBN: 978-1-58498-084-1, paper, $13.95

"A nameless old man who “carries his smell with him / Wherever his smell takes him,” the antihero of Henry’s latest collection stands as a stark rejoinder to the placid and revelatory monologues that are a commonplace of many male poets."  
--Publishers Weekly
