Description
"An often-sweet, often-startling autobiographical novel-in-verse about going through a divorce and the death of a loved one--meditating on life's big and small losses, and the ways the universe at once reminds us of and assuages those losses." --O, The Oprah Magazine
"A fierce, funny, agonized, cracked-open aria in homage to the presence and passing of fiercely loved things." --Maggie Nelson, author of The Argonauts
how does a person dislodge the scenes
that burn inside them like arsoned cars?
Ali Liebegott is reeling from a fresh, painful divorce. She wallows in grief and overassigns meaning to everyday circumstance, clinging to an aging Dalmatian and obsessing over dead birds. Going through the motions of teaching and walking her dog, she eventually decides to hit the road: Ali and Rorschach at the Center of the World.
This autobiographical novel-in-verse is a chronicle of mourning and survival, documenting depression and picking apart failed intimacy. But Ali Liebegott's poetry is laced with compassion, for herself and the reader and the world, as she learns to balance the sting of death with the tender strangeness of life.
