Product Overview
Poetry. Bank robberies. Kissing. Presidential announcements. Suits. In his first full-length book of poetry, Sasha Fletcher chronicles the domestic lives of two people living with ghosts, certain doom, an unidentifiable number of children, and each other. Funny and disastrous, tragic and optimistic, IT IS GOING TO BE A GOOD YEAR is the sort of love story that you only hear about when you listen, very carefully, to the kind of things you are too terrified to ask for.
There are ghosts in this book, which means there's an afterlife. You might even be in the afterlife. But even though there's an afterlife, I'm sorry, you're still going to need to find something to eat, and the Beloved is still going to leave you. I love Sasha Fletcher's voice for the fearless way it celebrates the world's collapse and for its endless confidence. Listen: it is going to be a good year, whether it is going to be a good year or not. Josh Bell
