Officeparks - poems by Noam Hessler

$16.00

"The poems in Officeparks pulse with interior monologues and peopled (animal’ed?) dialogues that reveal the strange materiality of reality. Showing off startling imagistic and formal invention, Hessler braids seas and highways, bulls and parishioners, syncretic references and cheeky kennings. With a hungry intelligence that can veer on obsessive, Hessler re-wilds the sterile geometry of modern life in this remarkable debut poetry collection."
—Stephanie Yue Duhem, author of Cataclysm Moves Me I Regret to Say

Features forty-six poems and interior illustrations by the author.
Cover art by Faith Fisher.

"Officeparks sets the reader down on an astrally projected highway of sights, sounds, loves, and fears, bolstered by a sometimes Joyce-like lexicon. Noam Hessler’s poems are rather unafraid of setting us down in moments of love for the droll, the quotidian of menial day jobs, or the historical and otherwise obscure. All of these moments in time come together wonderfully in Hessler’s inaugural book, which offers something new upon each visit. A lovely beginning for a talented poet, Officeparks will be required reading for any discerning reader of the post-post-modern e-world.
—Hayden Church, author of So What? and editor-in-chief of Maximus Magazine
