WINNER OF THE 2010 AGNES LYNCH STARRETT POETRY PRIZE“Glenn Shaheen is claiming new ground for American poetry. His poems are about the nightmares of information overload, collapsing infrastructure, ubiquitous violence, and other ills of late empire. The subjects are not happy, but Shaheen's clear vision and crisp—often witty—language offer the pleasures of surprise, discovery, and recognition.”—Ed Ochester

Fiction. UNCHECKED SAVAGERY, Glenn Shaheen's first collection of flash fiction, introduces the reader to a tragicomic universe where bad jokes become pathos-laden impetus, media landscapes are transformed into loci of passion and intrigue, and the intimate territory of the uncertain relationship becomes a funny, hellish adventure. Shaheen's eye for detail and ear for threats wither archetypes, seeking the sublime glimpses memorialized here: assignations on a night train, the game of love made suddenly desperate, the fragile body in unkind hands.
