Accidency by Joel Steven Kuszai continues Roof's tradition of introducing the first major work of new writers to a global audience. This volume collects two poems. "A Miscellany" is a serial poem based on Shakespearean rhetoric that reveals the tragedy of modern consciousness, "At great doom / with gracious benefits." "Brooklyn Yards" does not appear on the surface to be a procedural work, "-I’m afraid to admit it / out of listening- / replacement parts could be a problem."
