"Your thoughts become fluid, volatile; their aroma fills the room. This is a
nerve storm."
In her first collection since Bitter Angel , winner of the 1991 National Book
Critics Circle Award, Amy Gerstler explores themes of suffering and redemption
through a heady blend of folklore, popular culture, and the natural world in
Nerve Storm . The poet Eileen Myles has said that "the supernatural, the sexy
mundane, the out-of-sight are simply [Gerstler's] materials, employed as they
might be in a piece of religious art." A crackling wit and whimsical instinct
guide this collection as Gerstler traipses through humanity's triumphs and
blunders, effortlessly revealing the surreal and surprising possibilities
inherent in everyday life.
