Book excerpt: Curbside Pickup is a socially conscious dark comedy in its own sort. Fifty poemsdivided between five seasons build together as a loose narrative covering a yearin the life of its speaker with who, through his tales of past and present, weget the down and dirty details of daily life in an East coast town dead set inblue collar America.Ennis' characters sometimes plain, sometimes seedy...sometimes innocent but justsimply stuck, all live in a world not too far from James Tate's or Tom Waits'.And with Ennis' enjoyment in the absurdity of human nature, colors of Hunter SThompson are also present, just replace the acid with a cheap beer or maybe alucky glass of scotch.
