Lonely Christopher's In a January Would tracks a heartbreak and the poet's ensuing attempt at recovery over the course of a rough year, half of which he spent homeless. Abandoned in an indolent, post-collegiate haze, searching for meaning but more often finding trouble, Christopher clarifies the perverse beauty of a brutal world-- from the rooftops of Paris, to the gutters of Brooklyn, across the beaches of Fire Island, and even through the snowy Protestant woods of Connecticut. In a January Would navigates harsh social realities with style and rigor. The melodrama of time's passage is on full display as Christopher parses themes of alienation, oppression, and cynicism in a journey through the four seasons. This unique break-up book focuses the grief of lost love to develop complex emotional themes in a refreshing rococo style.
