Blinking with Fists

"Long admired for his evocative songwriting, Billy Corgan here embarks on a deeper exploration of literary terrain as a poet. Full of "the regretful melancholy of his music [and] the rhythmic, angular wordplay of his best Pumpkins lyrics" (Jeff Vrabel, Chicago Sun-Times), the poems in this collection form a journey through the intensely personal as Corgan throws into sharp relief issues of love, loss, identity, and loyalty. Whether articulating the vicissitudes of a romance run off course or taking a long, hard look inside the soul, Corgan crafts his words with a thoughtful and cadenced approach that shares the same allegiance to thunder and quiet found in his music, and further solidifies his place as the voice of a generation."--BOOK JACKET.
