Dandy Madness A poetry book

Dandy Madness is a bold, riotous, and achingly tender debut poetry collection from Buddy Devine - a voice as unruly and alive as New York City itself. With equal parts wit and raw emotional honesty, these poems careen through the highs and disasters of queer love and modern dating, the ache of loneliness in a hyperconnected world, and the surreal absurdity of simply being alive in the 21st century.
From a hapless search for a misplaced dick to time-traveling sexual misadventures with a wizard named Steeve, from a man from Mars bewildered by humanity's cruelty to a letter from an alien pen pal weeping over the state of Earth, Devine blends laugh-out-loud humor with devastating vulnerability and visionary social critique. Rooted in the Beat tradition yet thoroughly, defiantly now, Dandy Madness is a love letter to misfits, outsiders, hopeless romantics, and anyone who has ever felt too much in a world that rewards feeling nothing - a debut that announces an unmistakable new voice in American poetry.
