The Torture Report

Nate Maxson

"I'm chasing something into former black forests," Nate Maxson writes in his extraordinary new collection The Torture Report. The notion of restless, constant, almost destructive pursuit is just one of the complex, disconcerting themes of this book. As each of these six poems spirals out of control in its own singular, devastating way, Maxson continues to be the kind of sharp cynic who believes the world is doomed. Yet at the same time, he can't quite shake the romantic necessities of hope. The Torture Report is a hell of a beautiful misadventure for the read. It is a masterpiece of form and function."-Gabriel Ricard- author of (Clouds of Hungry Dogs, Kleft Jaw Press 2014.)
