The Troublesome Amputee: Collected Poetry

Author: John Edward Lawson

Genres:
Publisher: Raw Dog Screaming Press
Welcome to one of the meatiest collections of grizzly, grotey, bizarro poetry you’ll come across. In other words, “the good stuff.” The stuff you like to read. The guilty pleasure stuff that’s hard to come by. Not the stuff you used to read from your lovers or childhood heroes, or the stuff you were made to read by your teachers or parents. The stuff you genuinely like to spend time with, musing and mulling and mashing. The stuff that makes you guffaw with laughter and want to read out loud to other unsuspecting people.

In his fourth poetry collection John Edward Lawson combines his previously displayed penchant for both horrifying subject matter and literary sensibilities. Ranging from the humorous to the surreal, the profane to the deeply personal, The Troublesome Amputee will remove parts of you that you didn’t even know you had.
