The Scar Saloon by Sholeh Wolpe

"Sholeh Wolpé's poems are political, satirical, and unflinching in the face of war, tyranny and loss. Talismanic and alchemical, they attempt to transmute experience into the magic of the imagined. But they also dare to be tender and funny lyrical moments."

— Chris Abani, author of Graceland, and Becoming Abigail
