An Inch Thick - Paperback

by Theo Ellin Ballew (Author)

AN INCH THICK is a future-mythic life story in lullaby, peopled by punkish attempts to bind and measure and hold still (attempts egged on by the memory of their impossibility). These texts were written between ages 19 and 26, after an itinerant Southwestern upbringing. They hold: fleeing from homes, homes that flee, femme sex in all directions, hedonism, cheap snacks, swelling, shrinking, bloating, and endless attempts to grow the good.
