Too Pretty for Plain Coffee

"Tyler Hurula might be 'the world's most tender magician,' weaving a poetic spell that compels you to fall in love, in heartbreak, or the in-between of almost. Too Pretty for Plain Coffee is a romantic stream of beautiful punches that bruise and balm. Its passion winds and unravels, simmers and swells, recoils and strikes gorgeous. What I am most enchanted by in this collection is its simultaneous devotion to the familiar and to 'sudden and infinite newness.' A fresh and energizing debut!" -Junious Ward, author of Composition
