The Satirist: Prose Poems

In The Satirist, Caleb Bouchard offers a collection of fifty-one prose poems steeped in surrealism and small town mores. Walking down the proverbial sidewalk of this book, you will encounter a starry-eyed Elvis impersonator (possibly several?) practicing kung fu, a lovesick pinecone, trees whose branches bear human eyes instead of fruit, and even the youthful ghost of Antonin Artaud, asking you to play a mysterious parlor game. Cerebral yet accessible, twisted yet tender, these strange slices of life evoke imagery and emotions that will linger in your mind like embers of a dream you can’t fully remember, but which you still look back on fondly.
