Douglas Cole- The Cabin at the End of the World

The Cabin at the End of the World, Douglas Cole’s latest poetry book with Unsolicited Press, ventures into prose poetry that is sometimes surreal, sometimes acute social commentary. In short, dreamlike and longer poems we glimpse the ragged edge of American dream and the possible future of a crumbling empire.
