As much as these poems are anxious and anguished-\"Make them describe it end to end\"-they are also tender and redemptive-\"I've been waiting for you\/and this closeness we wouldn't abuse.\" But \u003cem\u003eMillennial Roost \u003c\/em\u003eis never apologetic in its truth-telling or its disappointment at a world that goes on once such awful truths are told. How do we live through (and live on!) after violation? Pearson's surrealist vision is itself a metaphor for the lie that physical resilience saves us from mental anguish. This is a beautifully necessary book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-Jericho Brown, author of \u003cem\u003eThe New Testament\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46458425049239,"sku":"9781949540055","price":1843.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781949540055.webp?v=1769185435","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/millennial-roost-9781949540055","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
