about

This full-length collection of narrative poetry explores the childhood memories and nostalgic daydreams of a grade-school bookworm now grown up to face cancer, debt, solitude, and the fear that all the joys and hopes of a bygone youth are slipping out of reach. Named the "Best Book of 2017" by literary website Drunk Monkeys: "In 2017, no book moved us, challenged us, and inspired us like James Duncan’s poetry collection We Are All Terminal But This Exit is Mine. It’s a powerful, transformative, and funny work - and our choice for Best Book of 2017."
