Poetry. "With its stutters, fractures, puns, sarcasms, and ironies, THE SHUNT is part of a cluster of books recently written by US poets attempting to understand what it means to live in a country that is constantly bombing other countries. But with its relentless attention to the group psychosis that this state of siege induces in US citizens, THE SHUNT is also something sui generis. This is your brain on war."—Juliana Spahr
