burning house fairy tale

About the Book

The publication of James C. Snowden's burning house fairy tale introduces a poet hell-bent on proving modern confessional poetry can be sophisticated, clever, and ultimately entertaining. Over two decades, Snowden's voice has taken on a shape clearly recognizable among confessional poets-yet distinctly original. Beneath their stark reality, each poem is driven by an endlessly brave imagination that aspires to occupy and filter our viewpoints on experience. The personal stories have a way of changing how we have come to see our own lives. During that change, you are allowed to witness how a poet can reinvent his own.
