Shake Hands with the Man in My Hand, by Daryl Gussin

"Daryl Gussin seamlessly tackles the social, political, and personal in a way that perfectly blurs the lines between the three, leaving the reader with an understanding that these lines don't really exist."
-Buddah, Razorcake #152

"Dreaming without being overcome by fantasy or nightmares."
-A. Iwasa, trialanderrorcollective.com

"Shake Hands with the Man in My Hand is a collection about negotiating existence in a state of cognitive and emotional overload. It is concerned with how we process violence, intimacy, envy, and hope in a world saturated with information and contradiction. Gussin does not offer answers so much as he documents the ongoing attempt to find them — and in that attempt, the work finds its quiet, persistent power."
-Richard Modiano, The Literary Underground
