Tomorrow's living room poems Whitmarsh, Jason. creator JSTOR (Organization) text Electronic books. utu 2009 monographic eng remote 1 online resource ([xi], 64 pages). Volume 13 in the Swenson Award Series, Tomorrow's Living Room offers a pleasantly disorienting verbal territory. The collection is alternately wry and dark, hopeful and bleak, full of unexpected light and laugh-out-loud incongruities. We begin to see that the shape and the furniture of Jason Whitmarsh's world reflect our own (they may in fact be universal), but we're considering them through completely new terms of engagement. Selected by, and with a foreword by, Billy Collins.
