B.H. Fairchild meets Kelly Link in this collection of poems by Timothy Fox. Made from the viscera of a working class upbringing in the American Deep South, every house needs a ghos t is both haunting and haunted. It includes the voices and stories of faith healers, queer teenagers, orphaned children, meth heads, single mothers and dead grandparents. Unsettling, gothic, and clear-eyed, it makes for a powerful and exciting debut. Timothy Fox is originally from Texas. He received a Houston Press Theatre Award for his play ‘The Whale; or, Moby-Dick’, and a Vault Festival Spirit Award for his play ‘The Witch’s Mark’. He was a finalist for the Robert Philips Poetry Chapbook Prize. www.timothy-fox.com Show more
