Description
"Purgatory"is one stop past"The Twilight Zone," a constricting landscape where the threads of daily life tighten around you. If "Hell is other people," then"Purgatory"is where you must sort through the baggage of your own life while trapped in a one-man submarine. These prose poems present a landscape where nothing is quite right, where the details conspire in irritation. Amelia Martensreceived an MFA from Indiana University and has taught writing as an adjunct instructor at West Kentucky Community & Technical College since 2007. She co-founded the Rivertown Reading Series, and has also received an Emerging Artist grant from the Kentucky Arts Council in 2010.
