Daphne Gottlieb's poetry can grab your heart, threaten to rip it out, then gently message you back to life.  She's an important poet for our generation, and thank god for that because most of the poets of our generation are ho-hum.

Here's what Roger Corman says regarding Final Girl:

"The slasher film, while perhaps deservedly underrated as a genre, makes clear one thing about our society: we want certain things to survive.  Daphne Gottlieb's FINAL GIRL wickedly subverts this received idea as it plays out in the popular imagination.  Her poems are courageous and startling."

There's lots of fun and a dose of passion within the pages of her book.

FINAL GIRL is available at your local bookstore or through Soft Skull Press.
