What is The Executive Director of the Fallen World (Phoenix Poets) about?

America--you Are On Notice. Liam Rector Has Little Patience For Sincere Poetry, Spin-doctored Politicos, Or Moral Hot Air Of Any Kind. The Titles Of These Poems Could Easily Serve As Their Own Warning Labels: Those With Clinical Depression Or Easily Triggered Violent Tendencies Should Use With Caution. The Executive Director Of The Fallen World Is Fearless And Forthright, Just The Sort Of Blunt Reality Check That Is Missing From So Much Of Contemporary, Over-stylized Poetry. Rector's Stoicism And Slightly Murderous Sense Of Humor Pervade These Poems As He Doffs His Hat To Humility And Audacity, Taking On America, Money, Movement, Marriages, And General Cultural Mayhem. The Characters And Voices In Rector's Poems Are, By Tragic Turns, Unflinching, Clearly And Cleanly Bitter, Sarcastically East Coast, And Lyrical. Writing In Tercets Throughout, The Poet Breathes New Life Into This Classic Form With Skill That Might Just Send Some Unsuspecting Readers Over The Edge.--publisher's Website.
