The Weaklings

(2006)
A collection of poems by

 
 
"Cooper has given voice to an emptiness we can barely stand to think about. . . . He dallies with the workings of narration and, in doing so, with the meaning of self. His work belongs to that of Poe, the Marquis de Sade, Charles Baudelaire, and Georges Bataille, other writers who argued with mortality." - San Francisco Chronicle

A new collection of poetry from "the most dangerous writer in America," whose poems Wayne Koestenbaum says "are the heart - the core - of his oeuvre. Pure genius, they are tender and deadened, breathing and stupefied."
