Description
Polarbear is one of the most influential poets of his generation. The work collected here is the work that made his name. These poems have racked up hundreds of thousands of views online, lodging themselves in the hearts and minds of readers and audiences alike. His particular gift is for the many kinds of music a line can contain. He marries the intricate, compulsive, rhyming strategies of rap with the schanachie’s gift for telling a story and the saxophonist’s flair for bending the possibilities of sound.
Polarbear appeared at VERVE in 2019 as part of our Funkentelecky VERVE special. Polarbear’s other book for adults, Second City Trilogy is also available published by VERVE Poetry Press in 2018.
