Oh, Terrible Youth

Oh, Terrible Youth

Oh, Terrible Youth - Poetry by Cristin O'Keefe Aptowicz. Reading OH, TERRIBLE YOUTH is like uncovering some fantastic lost episode of "Square Pegs" written by Sharon Olds... Ernest Cline, author of The Geek Wants Out and Fanboys In her fourth and latest collection of poetry, Cristin O'Keefe Aptowicz showcases the sharp wit, self-deprecating pathos and unapologetic brashness which have made her books consistently some of the best selling within the poetry slam movement. In this eclectic compilation, Aptowicz ruminates on the trials and tribulation of her tween self ("My Elementary School Confessions"), her unapologetic high school geekiness ("The Secret Language of Nerds") and all the melodramatic yet sincere love verses she ultimately penned in vain ("On Reading Old Unrequited Love Poems"), among other inspired topics. This plump volume of new work commiserates and celebrates all the wonder, terror, banality and comedy which is the long journey to adulthood.
