From the author of There Are More Beautiful Things Than Beyonce and Magical Negro, Winner of the National Book Critic's Circle Award
Other People's Comfort Keeps Me Up at Night is the debut collection that launched the career of award-winning poet Morgan Parker. Here in these poems, her command of language is on full display. Morgan Parker bobs and weaves between humour and pathos, grief and anxiety, Gwendolyn Brooks and Jay-Z, the New York School and reality television. She collapses any foolish distinctions between the personal and the political, the 'high' and the 'low'.
Other People's Comfort Keeps Me Up at Night introduced an essential new voice to the world, containing everything readers have come to love about Morgan Parker's work.
'Hilarious and hard-hitting . . . it ripples with energy, insight and searing music' Tracy K. Smith
'I love these poems by Morgan Parker. They tell everything exactly like it is and they don't let us off the hook . . . They hit you with the authority and moral clarity of Langston Hughes and have the omnivorous eye of Frank O'Hara' Matthew Rohrer
