Description

Esteemed poet takes on novel writing: David Starkey served as Santa Barbara's Poet Laureate from 2009-2011. Over the past thirty years, he has published eleven full-length collections of poetry with small presses and more than 500 poems in literary journals. His beautiful lyricism and poignant themes continue to shine through in his debut novel, Poor Ghost. Entertaining and explosive story: Poor Ghost begins with a bang and only gains momentum as it escalates to an explosive conclusion that consumes 70 acres and a central character. In between, there are riotous livestreams, violent librarians, and groupie invasions to keep the readers glued to the page. Generational Clashes: With the reverence of Please Kill Me: An Uncensored History of Punk Rock and the atmosphere of Didion's Play It As It Lays, Poor Ghost experiments with the ways different generations view their cultural inheritance. At its heart, Poor Ghost is about what happens when different worlds (literally) collide with one another, and how we view, negotiate, argue with and aid those who are unlike us.
