Poetry. BOYFRIEND MOUNTAIN is the second collaboration between Kelly Schirmann and Tyler Brewington after their chapbook, Nature Machine (Poor Claudia, 2014). "Reading Tyler Brewington & Kelly Schirmann's split-book BOYFRIEND MOUNTAIN is like the best sleepover ever, that late-night freakout time when the real gets giddy & Truth-or-Dare demands only truth, more truth & forever truth. The two individually written halves of the book use the same title, BOYFRIEND MOUNTAIN, & as Brewington collects moments of attention & knotting & scattering into a disjunctive & projective wisdom, Schirmann deals & redeals the cards of her experiences, not to compete but to show how each hand can be tragic & beautiful. Both poets work in a confessionalism that owes as much to Adrienne Rich & O'Hara as it does to Catullus & entwined within one spine these two demonstrate the permeability of our experiences & relationships, how we climb & fall off these cliffs of love & fear & bodies & joy."—Mathias Svalina - from Amzon
