I’ve had the shit kicked out of me more gently than this…
–JORDAN WYBERNEIT
AUTHOR OF AFTER THE ANTHROPOCENE
“This is the kind of work that reminds me why I started not just writing poetry, but reading it. Sharp and smart and dark but with a strange deep love of the world underneath, I knew the first time I read Foley’s work that I would become a lifelong fan.”
–Erika T. Wurth, Author of White Horse & The Haunting of Room 904
