Author Description

Poetry. Exploring the desolate landscapes of urban isolation, the poems force examination of the very depths of ourselves, where love is manic and families desperate and tragic. Teenagers make out at stations, couples discuss prison suicides in Yosemite, all the while acting on impulses that betray our animal natures. Lee writes with tempestuous energy, and these poems give us an unflinching gaze into what is in our hearts. Larkin, Leicester, love and lust: are we human, or is it just our DNA?
