poems in Emma Healey’s second collection describe a world that’s anxious and skewed, but still somehow familiar--where the past, present, and future overlap, facts are not always true, borders are not always solid, and events seem to write themselves into being. An on-again, off-again real estate sale nudges a quartet of millennial renters into an alternate universe of multiplying signs and wonders; an art show at Ontario Place may or may not be as strange and complex (or even as “real”) as described; the collusion of a hangover and a blizzard carry our narrator on a trancelike odyssey through Bed Bath & Beyond. Using a diverse range of subjects--from pharmaceutical research testing to Tinder--to form an inventory of ontological disturbance, Healey delves moments when the differences between things disappear, and life exceeds its limits. 2018.Steve Bauer on bicycling: a cyclist's sourcebook
