Review "How did Fama invent a tone so perfect and icy, so equal to our times?" --Wayne Koestenbaum "Fama could be the voice of a generation, or the hyper-alert, giddy, composite voice of well-read contemporary Brooklyn. Gossipy, sometimes giddy, "weightless in badinage," Fama juxtaposes high-culture names, high fashion and luxury brands, and Internet ephemera, mixing in tongue-in-cheek attacks on "normsies"; echoes, or satirical imitations, of the born-digital generation's hookup and hangout slang; and sophisticated, almost despairing, critiques of contemporary political economy." --Publishers Weekly [Fama] is the perfect voice for right now, for selfies and split Adderalls, for Klout scores and sample sales, for ultra-connection and loneliness, for a time when the sweetest love note is indeed what he says in "Odalisque": "If you were not here, I'd be incredibly bored." --The Rumpus [Fama's] long poems treat the reader to [thorough] prettiness and scuzz, pop cultural nods and swift swallows of theory, essaying variations on questions of being and art-making in the selfie era. How important is a #nofilter kind of poetry, anyhow? --Joanna Novak, American Microreviews Fama writes threshold poetry in a tone disaffected yet strangely affecting. "Sunset," the first poem, is my favorite of the year so far. --Flavorwire Read more About the Author Ben Fama is the author of several chapbooks and pamphlets, including the artist book MALL WITCH (Wonder), Cool Memories (Spork), Odalisque (Bloof), and Aquarius Rising (Ugly Duckling Presse).
