The Second Sex (Penguin Poets)

The Second Sex (Penguin Poets)

A second collection from a poet of "sheer joy and dizzy command" (The New York Times)
SELECTED AS A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR:
Slate * Flavorwire * First Things * Coldfront * Books & Culture * The National Post * Lit Genius * Vol. 1 Brooklyn

Upon its publication in 2012, Alien vs. Predator, the debut collection by Michael Robbins, became one of the hottest and most celebrated works of poetry in the country, winning acclaim for its startling freshness and originality.

Robbins's poems are strange, wonderful, wild, and irrationally exuberant, mashing up high and low culture with "a sky-blue originality of utterance" (The New York Times). The thirty-six new poems in The Second Sex carry over the music, attitude, hilarity, and vulgarity of Alien vs. Predator, while also working deeper autobiographical and political veins.
