The Consequences

The Consequences is a hybrid collection of prose and poetry; an autofictional examination of the pain of a transatlantic relocation from New York to the blanketing beige of Paris to rejoin a totemic muse. It also focuses on corgi attacks, Maryland, painful anxiety, the struggle to accept the things one cannot change, the third party and the past as adamantine shackles. The “towering sexual iconography of Mike Immerman” looms over the disorientation of a reluctant resident in “the City of Light.” [publisher's note]
