Steve Healey, Safe Houses I Have Known, Poetry Book, Cover

SAFE HOUSES I HAVE KNOWN

Finalist for The Believer Book Award
​and The Minnesota Book Award
“Though I felt the recognition of Healey’s warning to us and to our country — ‘it is safer not to finish anything’ — I couldn’t put this book down.” —Gillian Conoley

“Pairing formal poetic lines with conceptually driven fragments, Healey carves a space for innovation within received forms. By blending personal narrative and found language, he evokes, and reverses, the power dynamics implicit in surveillance.”  —Publishers Weekly

“Through such uneasy quiet, Healey’s chilling collection confides that conflict is intimate, no matter how much language a global superpower encodes to insist otherwise.”  —Douglas Kearney
