Fun Again (Paperback)

Motifs in these short poems include hard drinking and harder living, which Stensland tackles with brutal honesty and dark humour. "Lucas Stensland's Fun Again is a collection of poignant short glimpses into a troubled life. With touches of desperation, monotony, and futility, Stensland takes the reader through a chronological decline of hope only to use his sharp wit to turn a sense of loss into a struggle to be fun again. This is a collection that offers a panacea for that which is lost and how hope can be reclaimed. It offers insight and art, a resilient combination." - Mary-Jane Grandinetti, editor of Shot Glass Journal and The Fib Review
