Bøger af Karl Koweski

Karl Koweski has finally ended his war against the Amish. While there are still pockets of the electricity-adverse in existence, thanks to Karl, their internet footprint has been all but wiped out. With Rumspringa cancelled, Karl Koweski can now settle back into his first love, writing the poetry. He can be found on the social media where he maintains an eerie radio silence."I can name only a handful of poets that I've ever read that can turn a rotted, decaying alley trash bag into a piece of beautiful art, but Karl Koweski stands atop that list. Perhaps no other modern writer has written more honestly, straightforward and unrelenting about a life featuring gutter level addictions and traumas, and managed to do it in a way that creates heart punch beauty. 'Under Normal Conditions' is a bouquet of roses made from rust and concrete and growing on the wrong side of the tracks in a city near you. An absolutely brilliant collection."-Dan Denton, author of Finding Jesus & Prayers To My Saints"Karl Koweski brings us on a voyeuristic journey into the grit and strife of an everyday working-class man, showing what it takes to transcend daily struggles into an artful interpretation of an industrialized landscape, proving that art is found in the dust-covered machinery of the American Dream." -Rebecca Schumejda, author of Sentenced¿¿"Karl Koweski writes blue collar poetry bursting with vivid imagery of the industrial American landscape and its all-encompassing loneliness. His work captures the desolation of the American soul more powerfully than any other contemporary poet I have read. The poems breathe with the resigned desperation of lives on the fringes, and the losses, both big and small, that eventually find us all. There are moving snapshots of sorrow, loss, and survival but peppered with dark and wry humor as well. Above all, these poems feel necessary, which is a rare thing these days."-William Taylor Jr., author of A Room Above a Convenience Store
