Product Description
A first collection for Chicago-based poet and small-press publisher, Brandi Homan. "Like the stream of cut-paper hearts in her Valentine Factory, Brandi Homan's poems are connected 'at the blade's edge,' are all 'hard reds'-an intelligent and imaginative woman coming to terms with desire. This collection is an exciting 'kick-start' for her electric voice." - David Trinidad

hard reds. mean reds July 30, 2008
Homan's poems sizzle and shimmy: from firebirds to fire-breathers, legato to pizzicato, Harleys to Kawasakis, they dazzle with their light show and kinetic imagery. Homan's work is gunslinger-sure and full of pining and witty viciousness; when you enter her incandescent world, you'll feel like you're eating electricity in a red dress, or as she writes, "I bite and come away neon." These poems are Valentines drenched in gasoline; they'll make you forget "how to breathe without burning."
