Daniel Joshua Nagelberg
Quit Me

“Quit Me is the third collection of poetry after Man Falling Backwards Down Stairs and Anger Report by Chicago poet Daniel Joshua Nagelberg. And with Quit Me, this poet has refined his disillusioned craft to a fine point and sticks it in life's eye. Some might finish Quit Me and dismiss the writing as a liquor induced hate for all humanity. But I disagree. I think he would view the world as a hopeless retch regardless. His poems are a punch to the face of anyone who wears rose colored glasses. They're stories that expose the wounds of human nature and lay it out for all to see as he views it, bleak. These free form poems are for those who have no hope and those who'd like to know how that feels.” - Chris Huntley
