Notes

  • Epigraph: Now all us cursed ones falling out after/ with our evil mouths and our worried eyes/ die before our time/ but do not go to some heaven, some hell/ but are put on the RAT'S STAR/ which is as wide as Asia/ and as happy as a barbershop quartet. - Anne Sexton, 'rats live on no evil star'.
  • AustLit note: 'rats live on no evil star' was Anne Sexton's favorite palindrome.
  • Dedication: For Guy and Ben.
