Description:
Sarah Vap's End of The Sentimental Journey is a beautiful collection of critically astute filth. With humor, stunning insight, and shimmering vulgarity Vap invents a fresh means of poetic critique in the poem itself. What she unveils for us is our own culpability in the gendered policing of contemporary poetry.
