For nearly two decades, Patrick Rosal has been one of the most beloved and admired poets in the United States, bringing together the most dynamic aspects of literary and performance poetry. The son of Filipino immigrants (his father was a lapsed Catholic priest), he has made a life of bridging worlds--literary, ethnic, national, spiritual--through his poetry, and has been recognized with some of the highest honors and countless devoted readers. The Last Thing: New & Selected Poems, gives us a substantial playlist of new work--hard-hitting and big-hearted--along with ample selections from his first four books. Bursting with music, infused with love and awe, this is essential reading from a poet of vigor and conscience.

Industry Reviews

"Patrick Rosal's poems careen & hum & beg to be read aloud. His lines are a mixture of inheritance and innovation, seeds sown in the margins of a system we were never meant to survive. He writes, 'the sounds I have made change the space that encloses me.' I read these poems aloud to change the air in my room, to alter my mood. What a gift to be reminded of the capacity for song in every breath." -- Jamila Woods
