Dime Store Erotics
Poetry. "Ann Townsend writes the romance of 'everyday' life in DIME STORE EROTICS but the exquisite act of her affection makes every minute a precipice, every detail an opening door not into the dime store but out into the spinning original dimensions of her lyric consciousness. She is an intoxicating poet." Carol Muske"

Dime Store Erotics is a splendid book of poetry, by a real up-and-comer! It is lyrically rich but also riveting--familial, sexual, natural. The poems range from the experiences of motherhood to buying dime novels in a busstop store, from gardening to drunken revelries. In addition to the strong narratives, the poems are themselves extremely well-made, tight, formally coherent but flexible. Ann Townsend surely knows how to write!
