The Jam Jar Lifeboat and Other Novelties Exposed

by Kay Ryan, Carl Dern (Illustrator)

Overview

Kay Ryan is the Poet Laureate of the United States. Her intensely strange, yet humorous and musical poems have been compared to those of Emily Dickenson. Playful and darkly witty, The Jam Jar Lifeboat and Other Novelties Exposed delves into the oddities of human behavior. Each of the fifteen poems are Ryan's response to a randomly selected entry in Ripley's Believe It or Not!. The poems are accompanied by delightful full color illustrations by Carl Dern. This is a perfect gift for any poetry lover.
