Dispatch From The Future by Leigh Stein
I love these poems. --Joe Dunthorne, author of Submarine Funny, surprising and lyrical, these poems range from the deserts of the Southwest to the abysses of Facebook. From online dating to beauty pageants, Greek mythology to road trips, Leigh Stein gives us resilient young women in longing and in love. Post-confessional--like Sylvia Plath raised on MTV, or Anne Sexton on Twitter--the poems seduce with a narrative hook or startle with a pop culture reference, all the while wrestling fresh meaning out of our fantasy-saturated modern lives. Leigh Stein's first novel, The Fallback Plan, was hailed as beautiful, funny, thrilling, and true by Gary Shteyngart (Super Sad True Love Story). A former New Yorker staffer and frequent contributor to its Book Bench blog, Stein is also the author of the poetry chapbook How to Mend a Broken Heart with Vengeance, and is the winner of the Amy Award from Poets & Writers magazine. She lives in Brooklyn.
Leigh Stein is the author of the acclaimed 2012 novel The Fallback Plan, a poetry collection the same year, and the 2016 memoir Land of Enchantment. From 2014-2017, she ran a secret Facebook group of 40,000 women writers, in her role as cofounder and executive director of Out of the Binders/BinderCon, a feminist nonprofit organization. She's been called a leading feminist by the Washington Post and poet laureate of The Bachelor by The Cut.
