Once described by Dave Smith as "a one-man symphony," Dacey here ranges widely in tones, strategies, and forms, a diversity appropriate for one who characteristically mediates on American identity. In these poems, Dacey winds together many strands—our national pop culture, the vagaries of human discourse, death, and sexuality—and frames them in a narrative as comic as it is plangent.
