Deadpan Voice: Tate’s signature conversational, matter-of-fact style makes even the most bizarre events feel strangely, movingly familiar. The Poet of Possibilities: A collection that showcases why John Ashbery called him a master of invention, creating worlds where anything can, and frequently does, happen.
