鈥淭here鈥檚 no telling from poem to poem where this brilliant 鈥榗onversation鈥 about maleness and gender will lead鈥攖here are poems about husbands and wives, parents and children, Elvis, Apollo, Walt Whitman, rhythms of its politics. Manthology is a remarkably honest and enormously heartening collection.鈥濃擭ancy Eimers, author of A Grammar to Waking
鈥Manthology casts a wide net to capture a provocative, idiosyncratic range of takes on the male experience. One of the worst things we as men can do is take ourselves too seriously, for the consequences of doing that are indeed very serious, and the editors of this fresh, unpredictable anthology clearly recognize that. The editors do not attempt to resolve any arguments with their selections, but maybe to create a few along the way鈥攊t鈥檚 a spirited collection from start to finish.鈥濃擩im Daniels, author of Show and Tell: New and Selected Poems
