Synopsis

he has sworn

he would stop this

but once more won't hurt

and this will be the last time

surely the last

What happens between the hours of knock-off-o'clock in the evening and get-up-and-go the next morning?

This is the premise of poet/author Frank Prem's first (2003) poetry collection The Book of Evenings, in which he explores the twilight and examines the dark until he has enough . . . more than enough material for a book of evenings.

Originally published with the assistance of a group of skilled and supportive friends and using the nom-de-plume of Frank Faust, Prem's examination of evening life is wide in its scope and incorporates the free-standing minor tragedy of Tuesday Night At Emile's.

Wild Arancini Press is delighted to release this brand new edition of a wonderful first collection of poetry on its coming of age twenty-one years after the original.

on a tuesday

it is emile's

where the choices

might be as long

as five courses of menu

but emile already knows
