Companion Animal

By Magdalena Zurawski

Winner of the 2016 Norma Farber First Book Award. In her debut full-length poetry collection COMPANION ANIMAL, Magdalena Zurawski delivers poems as distilled acts of reckoning, always engaged with the question: what could poetry "do with or for or around all that?" Of the book, Jennifer Moxley writes, "Beautifully continuing what was so engaging about the work of New American poets such as Jack Spicer and Robert Creeley, these poems are hyper-aware of their contradictions, yet completely emotionally vulnerable. They refuse cynicism and pretense, and such a refusal explodes any possibility of intellectual distancing or emotional hiding."
