Crunchwrap Truth, Poetry by Kevin J.B. O’Connor
Bottlecap Press, May 2025
Crunchwrap Truth by Kevin J.B. O’Connor is a chapbook of absurdist political-food poems, inspired by the regal concoction from which it borrows its title. In existential poetry that probes the meaning of American citizenship in a post-capitalist and post-truth society, O’Connor constructs and conveys a peculiar moment in Western history. Inspired by the New York School and confessional/post-confessional approaches to narrating post-modernity, the author romps through a series of linked verse that is a delightful, page-turning experience to read. The book is available now from Bottlecap Press.
