About this author

Terese Svoboda has published 12 books of prose and poetry, most recently, Pirate Talk or Mermalade. Bohemian Girl, her fifth novel, will appear fall 2011. Svoboda's writing has been featured in the New Yorker, the New York Times, the Atlantic, Slate, BOMB, Columbia, Yale Review, and the Paris Review. She lives in New York.


Publisher's Weekly: "Svoboda’s poems are as haunting as they are funny, as pleasurable as they are powerful."

Library Journal: "Not for casual readers or right wingers, this collection should be considered by anyone serious about contemporary poetry."

My fifth book of poetry, this one published by the University of Arkansas press.

Hope you like it!
