~getting away with everything

Abstract

Second book-length collaboration with poet Christopher Shipman (first was "_a ship on the line." "The bad boys of poetry are back! In this second collaboration we see Vincent Cellucci and Christopher Shipman still enjoying their high jinx, surprising metaphors, attention to sound and deep investment in place. But they also have grown and deepened; the "former reprobates" now take on fatherhood, jobs, moving, and aging. getting away with everything is an immensely lively book." --Beth Ann Fennelly.
