Self-Portrait with Spurs and Sulfur - Poems
Casey Thayer
Publisher: University of New Mexico Press
Summary
Part fun-house hall of mirrors in its distorted and dizzying central narrative, part spaghetti western, and part prayer, Self-Portrait with Spurs and Sulfur is an exploration into the possibilities of storytelling. Through persona poems and odes, the collection argues that the muddier the narrative, the closer the story gets to truth.
