Produktbeschreibung
Gregory Crosby is our go-to poet for cinematic deep-dives, apocalyptic parables, hot takes on literary dustups, and lusty interludes of backlit longing. Said No One Ever collects a decades' worth of breakneck verbal switchbacks and charged poetic insight-there is almost no subject pertinent to American culture that Crosby doesn't square up. Here we are in the 21st Century, our lives balanced between myth and modernity, advertising and socializing, as Hollywood babbles on and our political scene skips through horrors like a creature feature on a busted reel-but still Crosby manages to plumb these depths without breaking stride or giving in, taking us on a memorable journey through art, language, history, and entertainment.
