"Copyright © 2015 by Morgan Parker. First published by Switchback Books. Tin House edition © 2021. Introduction © 2021 by Danez Smith." -- Page opposite title page.
"The debut collection from award-winning poet Morgan Parker demonstrates why she's become one of the most beloved writers working today. Her command of language is on full display. Parker bobs and weaves between humor and pathos, grief and anxiety, Gwendolyn Brooks and Jay-Z, the New York school and reality television. She collapses any foolish distinctions between the personal and the political, the "high" and the "low." Other People's Comfort Keeps Me Up at Night not only introduced an essential new voice to the world, it contains everything readers have come to love about Morgan Parker's work"-- Provided by publisher.
COMMUNITY REVIEWS
decent but not amazing submitted by abhiparekh on July 9, 2023, 1:54pm I'm generally not a poetry person, but there's some poetry that's an exception to that rule and really hits me. I thought this book would be one of those, but it was't. Not bad but not great.
