Poet Laureate of the BBQ Joint is a stunning debut collection by Lauren Boisvert. This collection is intricately tied to place-beach, water, and sun. The poet gives the reader a glimpse of life in Florida and urges visitors to "Leave the beach with a pocket full of shells / and a sunburn skin red as a newborn." This collection will take you deep into the water and leave you breathless. Leah Huete de Maines Poet-in-Residence Emerita at Northern Kentucky University
