Synopsis "Crushing it"

The poems in Jennifer L. Knoxs darkly imaginative collection, Crushing It, unearth epiphanies in an unbounded landscape of forms, voices and subjectsfrom history to true crime to epidemiologywhile exploring our tenuous connections and disconnections. From Merle Haggard lifting his head from a pile of cocaine to absurdist romps through an apocalypse where mushrooms learn to sing, this versatile collection is brimming with dark humor and bright surprise. Alongside Knoxs distinctive surrealism, Crushing It also reveals autobiography in poems about love, family, and adult ADHD, and Knoxs empathetic depictions of the egos need to assert its precious, singular I suggest that a self distinct from the hive, the herd, the flock, is an illusion. With clear-eyed spirit, Crushing It swallows all the world, and then some.
