The Stupefying

About this book

A bruised arm firmly removed from its sling, Nick Ascroft's The Stupefying offers a collection of poems that are as humorous as they are insightful.

Just when you least expect it, this collection clonks out into the limelight, splitting the world in two with its unique blend of deflation and elation. Ascroft's poetic sensibilities and craft are always surprising, sometimes morally questionable, but always a delight. His fifth collection may be his most personal yet, with a sweetness that stings us repeatedly. Readers of contemporary poetry, New Zealand literature, and witty verse will find much to appreciate in this collection.

The Stupefying isn't funny ha-ha but funny that-can't-be-true-but-I-know-it-is. Don't miss this collection of eavesdropping and invention!
