Brother Nervosa

By Ronald Palmer

BROTHER NERVOSA is Ron Palmer's highly anticipated second collection of poetry.

BROTHER NERVOSA, explores questions of gender, sexuality, and queerness, the relationships between poetry, theater, and film, and wrestle with grief, violence, love, and desire.

"Feverish and oracular, Ronald Palmer fuses the terror of the body with the kaleidoscopic beauty of dreams in BROTHER NERVOSA. Palmer writes: 'Dear virus / arriving pregnant with vengeance / I am your foreign witness.' And bear witness these poems do: to illness, anxiety, love and desire, the threat of one body being with another. The lovechild of Jean Genet and Arthur Rimbaud, Palmer offers us a bold and spectacular dreamscape that bears more than a small resemblance to our current time."--C. Dale Young
